Hiroshima Tree planting

St Stephens Church, Watling Street St Albans, AL1 2PT

For many years we have had a cherry tree in the churchyard at St Stephen's donated and planted by St Albans CND in memory of Hiroshima. A few years ago, this tree died, but we are delighted that we’ve got permission to plant another one, again being donated by St Albans CND. It would be lovely if church members could come along to join in with the short ‘planting ceremony’ followed by refreshments in the hall. All are welcome.

St Julian's

Our church was built in the 1950s to serve the growing Cottonmill area. Since then, as the Heart of Cottonmill, it's provided flexible space for Christian worship, meetings (for groups including young and old), events, parties and celebrations.

Our Sunday service is live, but some are also recorded and available to follow online. Details are shown on the Services and Events page. Other services in the Parish are held at St Stephen's Church, with its own entry in A Church Near You.
