St Thomas' Church, Charlton

Anglican
Congregation: 50 adults (25 under 18)

Our beautiful Edwardian village church - the church at the centre of the village - has been skillfully adapted and extended to serve as a community centre. The parish's population is nearly 5,000. We are thrilled that Young Church is growing and a youth group contributes to the wider life of the parish. The Family Service attracts young families and we have a thriving Toddler Service on alternate Monday afternoons. We have produced seasonal service books from Common Worship, including a simple booklet for the Family Service. Last year we welcomed 2,500 visitors for special occasions (weddings, etc.). The congregation are committed, kindly and welcome newcomers. Look out for the notice in the porch: Carpenter needs joiners.
