Welcome to St Mary’s Tatsfield

We are a friendly Anglican church within the Diocese of Southwark, with a long, proud Pilgrim history and continue to welcome those travelling the Pilgrim’s Way today.  We are delighted that our Team Curate, Revd Debra Elsdon, who is based at the Rectory in Tatsfield with Husband Ashley will be ordained Priest on Saturday 5th July at St Mary’s Church Reigate RH2 7RN.  The next day Sunday 6th July Revd Debra will lead our 10am Holy Communion service at St Mary’s Tatsfield.  Drinks and nibbles follow in the Millennium Hall.  We look forward to Revd Debra developing her role within St Mary’s and the wider Limpsfield & Tatsfield Team Ministry.

We support the needs of our local community through the Westerham foodbank, which faces increased demand with the ongoing cost of living crisis and a reduction in donations received. Non-perishable food donations you are able to give can be left in the receptacle at the back of the church Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday from 9am to 3.30pm. or contact Hilary Vale (01959 577864).  Thank you for your support.
