Welcome to St Barts

We are a parish church in the Church of England, based in Sydenham, London. There are about 200 in the congregation and our worship combines all the main traditions of the Anglican Church.

We welcome all Christians and those enquiring into Christianity; communicant members of other churches are invited to take Communion with us.

We have services every day and two Eucharists on Sunday, at 8am and 10am.

We seek to be:

  • an inclusive, family friendly place for the community
  • where people can be in touch with the spiritual,
  • offer worship to God
  • and find new purpose in life.

We offer:

  • a place of prayer where all can feel at home
  • a place of shelter where the lost can know themselves found
  • a place of pilgrimage where we learn and grow on our journey together
  • a place of support and challenge to the community
  • a place to meet with God.
