Chiddingstone Churches

The parishes of St Mary's, Chiddingstone and St Luke's, Chiddingstone Causeway serve the villages of Chiddingstone, Chiddingstone Causeway and Chiddingstone Hoath (collectively known as The Chiddingstones) and the hamlets of Bough Beech, Wellers Town and Charcott.

We are one congregation meeting together in two churches: from Easter until Harvest, the main Sunday morning services are held in St Mary's, Chiddingstone, and from Harvest until the following Easter, the main morning services are held in St Luke's, Chiddingstone Causeway.

Since we are a Joint Benefice, you may have a wedding, baptism or funeral at either Church so click on either Church below to find out more.

NEW - Update on Church Services - January 2021

Whilst the current lockdown which we have just entered does permit congregational worship with various mitigations in place and after lengthy risk assessments, the Associate Priest – together with the PCCs of St Luke’s and St Mary’s – has taken the decision to continue with online services for the time being due to the continued high infection rates in Kent coupled with our local hospitals already at capacity and struggling to cope, and in order to protect our congregation members.

We know this will come as a disappointment to some but hopefully as 2021 progresses, things will look brighter and we can meet together again in person before long.

Please keep an eye on the Services and Events page of this website for details of our forthcoming services. Our most recent Sunday Services will be available on the Watch a Service page of this website, and the most recent Children's Service will be available on the Children and Families page. Meanwhile all our online services can be accessed directly from our YouTube Channel.
