WELCOME

Faith, Hope and Love in the heart of Storrington.

St Mary's is the Church of England parish church for Storrington (and Cootham) in West Sussex.  Whoever you are, you'll find a warm welcome at our services and activities.  We believe that everyone is loved by God and is part of his family.  Whatever your background, whatever your level of faith or doubt, whatever the story of your life, we'll be glad to see you.

Our church building is normally open during the day - many people use it - and the peaceful churchyard has beautiful views over the South Downs National Park.  It's a great place to be, and a great place to be yourself.

SUNDAY WORSHIP 

On Sunday, we gather in the church building for worship at 8am Holy Communion (BCP)  for a quiet said service and at 10am for Parish Holy Communion (Common Worship) our main morning service, with a sung Holy Communion setting, sermon/interactive talk, and rousing & thoughtful hymns.  Refreshments are served afterwards - please do stay to chat.  The service is also available on Zoom - please enquire for details.  On the 1st and 2nd Sundays we meet at 6pm for Evensong (BCP), a quiet traditional service of sung Evening Prayer, followed with hymns and sermon.
