About Us

St Paul's is a Church of England parish in Beckenham, in the London Borough of Bromley. Founded in 1872, we recently celebrated 150 years of ministry.

St Paul's is a strong and vibrant church family, dedicated to proclaiming and living out the good news of the Gospel faithfully in our community. We welcome everyone, irrespective of background or circumstances. Our vision statement, "Growing in Christ together, one step at a time", expresses our desire to nurture and encourage one other on our individual journeys of faith, whether we are just starting out, or well-advanced along the way.

We believe that our faith calls us to engage with the world around us, and are committed to serving our local community as fully and meaningfully as possible, through our Connect @ St Paul's programme.

Our worship is shaped by our commitment to both word and sacrament: we believe in the transformative power of Biblical preaching, and in Holy Communion as Christ’s means of embracing a broken world.
