Welcome to Horley Team Ministry Website

Our three churches are, St Bartholomew’s, St Wilfrid’s and St Francis’.  The three churches work together in serving the Parish of Horley, within the Deanery of Reigate and in the Diocese of Southwark as part of the Church of England. 

Our mission statement is “Serving Horley With The Love of Christ”. We hope to live this out in various ways.

Update - 23rd March 21.30 hours  

As you all know that the advice changes daily with this coronavirus. With sadness we announce that all the Anglican churches here in the Horley Team Ministry will be closed until this coronavirus threat has past. There will not be any weddings, baptisms, no quiet prayers on Sundays or at any other days of the week. 

The ministers are able to take funerals but only with immediate family members, this is following the guidance from the government. Please be assured that we are praying for Horley and everyone”

 May the Lord God bless you, in your isolation, use this time to read God word and listen to him and prayer, God will speak to us all during these times no matter how frightening this time might be for some, God is walking with us. 

Ring people on their own so that they are not isolated, mental well being is important to all.

The Horley Parish

The three churches are different in their styles of worship as we recognise God is a God of variety and diversity in worship style. We look to God through the scriptures and are guided by the Holy Spirit to help, inspire and enable us to remain faithful to this mission of God in Christ to the local community and beyond.

The Parish is an Evangelical parish with a mix of traditions in both styles and worship within the Anglican Communion.  We believe that the Bible is the word of God and should be seen in our every day lives, to inspire, nurture and to encourage people to know that they are loved by God in Jesus and through the Holy Spirit.

Please explore our website if you would like to find out some more about us. You would be most welcome to join us for worship at any of the three Churches at any of our services.
