Kingsnorth + Shadoxhurst Churches

Kingsnorth + Shadoxhurst Churches Kingsnorth & Shadoxhurst Churches part of the Ashford Town Parish. Sharing God’s love and igniting hope as we gather, grow, and create together.

Welcome to our vibrant Christian community! We are a diverse group of people of all ages and backgrounds, brought together by our shared love of Jesus and our commitment to serving the community. As part of the Ashford Town Parish, our aim is to be a family of churches centred on Jesus, and dedicated to sharing God's love, igniting hope, and creating meaningful relationships with our local communi

ty and beyond. We believe in the power of prayer and in helping children and young people flourish through the knowledge of God's love. We offer three Sunday morning services to suit different tastes and preferences. For those who appreciate the timeless beauty of traditional worship, we have an 8am BCP service at St Peter & St Paul in Shadoxhurst every 1st and 3rd Sunday. Every Sunday, we have a 9:15am traditional Holy Communion service and a 10:45am Contemporary Worship Service at St Michael & All Angels Kingsnorth. Whatever service you choose to attend, we hope you will find it accessible and intergenerational, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. As a church, we believe that faith is not just something we practice on Sundays, but a way of life that is lived out every day. That's why we are committed to serving the community and creating opportunities for people to connect with one another and with God. We hope that you will find a place here to belong, to grow, and to serve alongside us. Along with our Team Vicar, Revd Adam Childs, we would be delighted to welcome you to our community. Please feel free to get in touch with us if you have any questions or would like to know more about what we do.

What a special moment at Kingsnorth Church today! ❤️

It was such a joy to meet Jill Cook, who used to come to church here at St Michael & All Angels when Revd Ernest Pitman was the incumbent — back in 1946!

Our church has seen generations of people worship, pray, celebrate, grieve and grow here, and meeting Jill was a wonderful reminder that we are part of a much bigger story.

And how lovely to capture a photograph of Jill standing in the same church, all these years later, with our current priest, Revd Adam. 📸

The list of incumbents on our wall stretches all the way back to 1259, and Jill’s memories help bring that history to life.

From 1946 to 2026, 80 years of stories, faith and community in one photograph. ⛪️❤️

We’re so grateful for everyone who has been part of the story of Kingsnorth Church, and for those who continue to write the next chapters with us.
