St Andrew's Church, Chesterton

A thriving, open and welcoming church community for all ages

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.

News and Events

Financial report for 2009

We learnt on Stewardship Sunday (24 January) that St Andrew's ran up a deficit of nearly £6,000 during 2009. Simon Peyton Jones, the church treasurer, has produced this report detailing our income and expenditure for the year. An accompanying letter from the vicar has been sent out to church members, inviting them to review their giving for the coming year and to return a response form. (Taxpayers can use the GiftAid declaration to ensure that tax can be reclaimed on their gifts).

The long & winding road: Lent 2010

The film Billy Elliot will be helping us at St Andrew's to think about the theme of vocation. This year's Lent course will use extracts from the film together with reflections on the Bible, discussion, prayer and a weekly journal. The title of the course is Life calling:seeking direction along the long and winding road. Groups will be held on Tuesday mornings, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday evenings and Thursday afternoons. More information and a booking form can be found here.
