Rector of Sissinghurst and Frittenden

Our lively and welcoming fellowship looks forward to working with our new Rector to spread the good news of Jesus to those around us in the beautiful Weald of Kent.

Evangelical in tradition, and evangelistic in outlook, our two churches are committed to sharing the love of Christ in our communities, and both are blessed with strong, committed and prayerful Christians.

Our vision for the next five years is to become a "Beacon in the Weald" by learning to love Jesus more together, cementing a fruitful children, families and youth Ministry, and expanding the body of mature and wise believers ready to serve the Church and our community.
