Our dedicated website can be found at christchurchwx.com \- you'll find more information about us there.

Christ Church is a friendly and inclusive church that welcomes all people. We believe in the ministry of both men and women, and we accept everyone as they are. We believe we are all made in God's image.

You don't have to ask to join, or to come here, Anglican churches are public places, intended to serve the community and you can literally just turn up at any service.

You'll be warmly welcomed!

We are part of Cheshunt Team Ministry (Christ Church, St Mary's Cheshunt, St Clement's, Turnford and St James' Goffs Oak) and the churches work closely together.

St Mary the Virgin

As the Church of England parish church, we are available for all the people of Cheshunt. Many people at very different stages of life and belief discover through the church how God relates to ordinary life. We try to cater both for those who come occasionally, for those who come regularly and for newcomers. Christians have worshipped here since St Mary's was first built some 600 years ago, although there is evidence of an older church building, dedicated to St John the Baptist, on the site of our present day church.

Generations of people have adapted the building for its main purpose - to be the focus and base for our church’s mission in Cheshunt. We exist to discover the love of God revealed in the world. By worship, prayer, teaching and service we seek to point to that love most especially made known in the person of Jesus Christ. We work closely with the three other churches in the Cheshunt Team Ministry, St Clement's, Turnford, St James', Goffs Oak, and Christ Church, Waltham Cross.

St Clement

Hello and welcome to St Clement's,

You are warmly invited to come along to any of our services or events. We meet on a Sunday morning at 10:30am and it would be lovely to meet you. During the week we are open on a Thursday morning for coffee tea and toast, some local papers are often available for you to browse while you enjoy your tea/coffee.

Please have a look around this site to find out more.

If you are interested in finding out about having your wedding at St Clements or having your young one baptised, or for that matter if you would like to find out about getting baptised yourself please come along or send me an email - [email protected]. I look forward to hearing from you or even better, meeting you.

The parish of Turnford is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults.
