St Andrew’s Church, Chesterton

A thriving, open and welcoming church community for all ages

St Andrew's Church

St Andrew’s exists so that together we can worship God, share God’s good news, grow in faith, and live and work in accordance with God’s will. This website will tell you a little about us, and some of the ways in which the people of St Andrew’s seek to be faithful to Christ, and live in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Visitors, seekers and new members are always welcome at any of our services. We find that we often draw closer to God at moments of change in our lives. We are happy to be involved in Christenings, Weddings & Funerals.

Many of our events and activities take place at St Andrew’s Hall, our local community hall.
