St Andrew's Church, Ham Common

St Andrew's Church, Ham Common A warm, friendly and inclusive community that meet and worship at St Andrew’s Church on Ham Common. There is a Sunday School and youth group for ages 3 - 14.

We're glad you have found us on Facebook and hope you will get a sense of the warm and friendly community at St Andrew’s. You are very welcome to join us for either worship or one of our other activities. The Church is a beautiful Victorian building set in a peaceful area of outstanding natural beauty on Ham Common, near to Richmond Park. There is plenty of parking outside the Church and on Church

Road. SUNDAY SERVICES
Our main and largest Sunday service is at 10:15am lasting for around an hour. On the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Sundays of the month, this is a service of Holy Communion using the modern language of Common Worship. Children go to the hall before the start of the service then are brought back into church just before Communion. Babies and children of all ages are very welcome within all our services. We have activity rucksacks with toys, books and drawing materials for children to explore while they sit with you in the pews. Parents, babies and toddlers are also welcome to use the children’s room at the back of the Church. After the service, refreshments are served in the Church Hall adjacent to the church. On the 1st Sunday of the month, there is no Holy Communion or Sunday School at 10:15am. Instead there is an all-age service. This less formal service aims to be thought-provoking and enjoyable for both children and adults. Coffee is served in Church after the service. On the 5th Sunday of the month, all ages join together for a joyful, interactive Holy Communion service.

In August our 9am BCP service will continue to run every week as usual, but we will share our larger morning service with our neighbour churches as usual. Please note which church we will all be meeting in on each of the Sundays in August, and the slightly different times.
