The Rector

Welcome to the web site of our parish. In these pages you will find a glimpse of the very active life that is our church community.

We serve Wanstead, a settled community in East London and a place with a great variety of people young and old, single and families. We hope all find a welcome with us as we seek to discover the life to which God calls us.

Our worship is traditional in style, centred on the celebration of the Eucharist within two contrasting buildings. Our active crèche and Sunday School provision ensures that there is a place for all in our worship.

Ours is a parish where all who seek to explore what it means to believe are welcome as we build a community that includes all God's people.

Beyond this, ours is a parish that is happy to enjoy each others company with an active social life.

To find out for yourself why so many people are attracted to worship here, do come and visit us.

I trust you find these pages useful, do use the contact pages if you want further information.

Canon Robert Springett Rector.
