Parish of South Beddington and Roundshaw

South Beddington and Roundshaw benefits from two churches within one parish. Mother Berni Excell looks after both the modern St Paul's church in Mollison Drive (next door to the Phoenix Centre) and the rather more traditional St Michael and All Angels on Milton Road. Both have lively and friendly congregations that support one another.  You are invited to join for Mass on Sundays (8.30 at St Pauls, 10.30 at St Michael's) and midweek on Wednesdays at St Pauls at 10.30

Our doors are open at both churches across the week (although not currently all day or every day) and you are welcome, whether you wish to sit quietly or join with others for prayer, worship and/or activities and chat.  At St Paul's we are delighted to have many partners offering their services in our midst, from AA to Mencap, the Women's Centre to a range of health partners and Wallington Community Wellbeing Charity.  Do check our main church page for more detail.

For one-off special events and services, please go to the "Services and events" and "News and notices" sections (left). Select the "News stories" tab for current news and events or the "Notice sheets" tab for the weekly newsletter.
