About Us

 St Mary’s serves the Parish of North Shoebury which stretches from Maplin Way North in the west to the Renown in the east, the railway line in the south to Southend Road in the north, an area with a population in excess of 10,000.

Until the housing developments in the second half of the 20th Century in Shoeburyness, we were a typical village church and we continue to be that. This is the place where for many ear, those who live in the village bring their children to be Baptised, get married, and eventually, have their funeral.

The current St Mary’s church dates back to the 1230s but is considered to be the third church on the site; the original church dating back into Saxon times. St Mary’s has been a presence in North Shoebury for over one thousand years, baptising its babies, marrying its couples, and burying its dead, and Sunday by Sunday offering praise and worship to God.

Our regular Sunday services.
