St Martin's Church

Welcome to St Martin's - a friendly and 'Inclusive Church' worshiping in a very historic building in Canterbury. Our church is the oldest church in the English speaking world still used for regular worship. As a church with a long history we welcome many pilgrims and tourists. 

Our main Sunday service stands aims to make the most of our special space in the form of a Quiet, reflective Eucharist.
On the first Sunday, we have a sung service with hymns.
We also have a monthly service of Quiet Prayers in the afternoon. As well as our regular services we offer range of traditional and relaxed services along with our sister church.

Joined with St Paul's Church for over 300 years, together, we are the Parish of St Martin & St Paul and you are very welcome to walk with us on our journey of faith.
