Welcome to our site.
 
Christ Church is an evangelical anglican church and part of the Southborough Team Ministry which includes St Peter, St Matthew, High Brooms and St Lawrence, Bidborough. We stand firmly on the authority of the Bible as the revealed Word of God. We are part of the Diocese of Rochester. Our services have a friendly relaxed feel. All are welcome. We believe God enriches and transforms our lives for the better.

The Team Rector, Revd Gerald Hovenden has overall responsibility for the Team Ministry but with particular day-to-day oversight of Christ Church and St Peter assisted by the Curate, Revd Miriam Barker. Team Vicars have similar responsibilities; Revd Chris Wicks at St Matthew and Revd Stephen Hills at St Lawrence and St Peter.*
