Mr Thomas James "Known as James" Barraclough

St Mary's Church has been a vibrant centre for Christian worship and service to the community of Chigwell for over 800 years. It continues today with a dedicated group of Christians who seek to witness to God's love for all people shown supremely in Jesus Christ.

All are welcome to share with us in our services and other activities, and in so doing, it is our hope and prayer that they will encounter that wonderful love for themselves.
