World Day of Prayer is an international, ecumenical organisation which enables us to hear the thoughts of women from all parts of the world: their hopes, concerns and prayers. Each World Day of Prayer worship service has a special annual theme which is developed by women of a different country each year - this year it has been taken up by the Cook Islands. A national committee then prepares an order of service on that theme.

So, our sisters in The Cook Islands welcome us and lead us, Christians living in and around Shoreham by Sea, for the Day of Prayer 2025. This group of 15 islands in the South Pacific Ocean has a rich and colourful Māori heritage and a deep connection to nature. Join with us as we pray together and reflect on the theme ‘I made you wonderful’.

St Mary de Haura is hosting this year's worship, but the service moves amongst each Shoreham church, year by year.

St Mary de Haura

Welcome to St Mary de Haura, New Shoreham.

With a heritage dating back over 900 years, St Mary de Haura stands at the heart of Shoreham-by-Sea, both spiritually and physically. We are open all day, 7 days a week between 10am and 3pm, for visitors to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the church building. 

We are also a thriving, diverse congregation who offer a warm and inclusive welcome. Follow to St Mary's website, or view our current weekly newsletter.


Our children's group, SHINE, is open to all children, from 0-11 years old.  This is on 2nd & 4th Sundays in St Mary's Hall, during the 10am Sunday service.
