St Stephen’s Norbury and Thornton Heath
St Stephen’s is an Anglican (Church of England) Church in the progressive Catholic tradition. We are a friendly congregation drawn mainly from the local community and reflecting the rich diversity of this part of London.
We aim to be an inclusive church welcoming everyone, whatever their age, background, sexuality or relationship status and regardless of how much or how little faith they may have. Honest doubters and people with questions are positively welcomed! You will find unconditional welcome and blessing at St Stephen’s.
We have services at 10am on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Mass is also celebrated at 8am on the first Sunday of every month. The 10am Mass on Sundays is live-streamed (https://www.facebook.com/ststephensNTH/live/).
