Welcome to the Parish of East Ham

We are part of the Church of England in the Diocese of Chelmsford.

Sunday worship takes place in our two churches, St Mary Magdalene's and St Bartholomew's and a wide variety of community activities in our buildings across the parish.

 Our Parish Vision

adopted in July 2006

In the light of God's call and our situation here our vision is that East Ham should be a place where the signs of God's kingdom are discerned and nurtured,

and where people, in all their diversity, share in the abundant life of God's creation.

We seek to worship in ways which honour both the long tradition of Christian witness here and also our constantly changing and very mixed congregations.

We strive to be inclusive and hospitable, to serve and learn, reflecting God's love for the world through the work which takes place in our buildings and in our lives beyond the buildings.'
