St Martin's Church

St Faith

Welcome to St Faith's - an Anglican church serving the community of Walsworth, to the east of Hitchin, including the Purwell and St Michael's estates.

The main Sunday service is at 10.00am. This is a service of Holy Communion lasting around 45 minutes, to which all are welcome. There is a small creche area in church for under 5's. Occasionally, this is a service of Morning Prayer. There is always singing, led by the choir.

Our Carers and Toddlers group, Small Talk. meets on Thursday mornings 9.15am till 11.00am, weekly in term-time. It's very informal and a valued meeting place.

The parish of Hitchin is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of St Albans’ safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.

St Mark's Church

Whether you are exploring faith for the first time, looking to re-connect with church after years away, a Christian who has recently moved to the area, are wanting some activities to occupy the children, or just looking for someone to talk to - we'd love you to make contact with us! All our services are in person, some are also live-streamed.

Our Sunday services typically blend a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with more formal aspects like liturgy and Holy Communion. We sing a mix of hymns and worship songs.

There's no dress code, no need to have experienced church before...just show up as you are, and a Welcomer will let you know what to do (usually it'll just be 'grab a service sheet, and take a comfy seat!').

We are committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Safeguarding Officers. Further details are on our website.
