Churches in Sundridge with Ide Hill Parish
St Mary's Ide Hill
Welcome to St Mary's Ide Hill which is part of the Parish of Sundridge with Ide Hill and Toys Hill.
As a Church We love Jesus. Above all, we want to know him more, and help others do the same.
We love the Bible. We believe that when the Bible is faithfully preached, God's voice is heard. That's how we get to know Jesus more. So we make teaching the Bible central in all our services. We seek to preach God's Gospel and draw closer to Christ by sharing His gifts of love, joy and peace.
We love to welcome visitors, so if you're in the area please join us on a Sunday morning at one of our services which vary in type and location through the month. We hold joint morning services on alternate Sundays at Ide Hill (2nd & 4th Sundays) and Sundridge (1st & 3rd Sundays). There is a 9.15 am Holy Communion service at Toys Hill on the 1st Sunday of every month. Services on the 5th Sunday of any month will also alternate between the two churches. If there is no service at Ide Hill on a particular Sunday, then we would encourage you to join us at Sundridge.
If you've just moved to the village of Ide Hill, we'd love to hear from you - we like to meet new people, and we would be pleased to provide you with further information about the area and our church.
Children are always welcome at our services and there are refreshments served afterwards, as this is a great way to get to know one another better.
