South Gillingham Team

We have four churches in our Parish: All Saints at Hempstead, St Matthew's in Wigmore, St Paul's in Parkwood and St Peter's in Bredhurst.

Currently all four churches have their main Sunday service at 10.30am - details of which type of service is each week in a particular church will be on the church pages linked below. 

Over the years our four churches have developed their own unique approach which enriches our Worship and gives people living in the Parish greater choice. We share common ministries and activities.  Further details of what is coming up can be found on the pages below:
