St Thomas

St Thomas aims to be a hub for its neighbourhood: a place where people can come together, learn, find support, build community, have fun, and where those of all faiths and none can feel welcome. We have plenty of space at our church, indoors and outdoors. We want that space to be used by local people, especially for projects and events that serve the common good or help the most disadvantaged and excluded.

What's on

Julian Hour - contemplative prayer

Every Tuesday at for 1 hour
St Thomas
Maryon Road Charlton London, SE7 8EW, United Kingdom

St. Thomas Julian Corner

St. Julian of Norwich was called to be an Anchoress; called by God to anchor the worries and troubles of the world in contemplative prayer to God.
At St. Thomas church we provide a Julian drop-in space where you are welcome to anchor your reflections on life and place them somewhere outside yourself. The Julian hour is in a secluded corner of the main church building and is open at the same time as the community Tuesday group. The corner is an open ended opportunity available from 10.30 am until around midday and is facilitated; anyone who needs to take a few minutes (or longer) in silent time-out is welcome.
