Welcome to St Paul’s and St Faith’s, churches together for Brentford. We want to love and follow Jesus, and build our local community where everyone’s welcome, everyone matters, and everyone’s involved.

We have three Sunday services at St Paul’s:

• An 8.30am said service of Holy Communion
• A 10.30am family service with Sunday school groups, creche and refreshments. Communion will be fortnightly. This service is also live streamed.
• A 6.30pm informal evening service with worship, a talk and an opportunity for prayer (Sept to July)

We also have a mid-week Communion service on Wednesdays at 10am.

We’ve got loads of events and services planned for advent and Christmas so there are plenty of ways for us to celebrate together. Please note that services at St Faith’s have been paused, so all services are at St Paul’s.
