It's Harvest Festival weekend so the church will be full of colourful harvest flower displays, a Tarring tradition going back over many years.

Volunteer tour guides are available to take you round and show you the impressive 19th century mosaics, 16th century wood carvings, amazing stain glass windows and other highlights. No need to book for a church tour, no charge, donations welcome.

We have 45 min slots available throughout the day to climb the tower, see the ringing room and the bells and then climb up to the top for incredible views across Worthing and the downs (weather permitting!). Places are limited to 8 persons per tour. We are asking for a donation of £10 per adult (or more!) one child per adult can go for free (0-15 years), their adult must take full responsibility for them at all times.

Saint Andrew

St Andrew Church serves the local community of Tarring. We are located at the heart of the most historic part of Worthing, a mile or so from the West Sussex coast and only a short distance from West Worthing train station. 

St Andrews is a beautiful church where the Christian faith has been celebrated for over 800 years, holding a deep connection to the thriving village community. We believe in the transforming love of Christ and the joy of walking this journey in fellowship with one another.

St Andrew is part of the Benefice of Maybridge and West Tarring, which also includes St Richards. 

Now that you have found us, have a look at the services and events we have taking place soon. 

Everybody is welcome!
