Churches in Westham Parish

St Luke

St Lukes is a small church built in the 1920s. It sadly became derelict in 1974 and stood unused and unloved until 1988 when, because of intensive local housing development, it was re-opened. St Luke's is now a thriving, lively church, worshipping in an inclusive modern catholic tradition. We have a wide age range of worshippers with children and families being especially welcome and welcomed. We are particularly proud of our excellent congregational singing and warm, welcoming atmosphere.

St Mary

High St, Westham Westham Eastbourne

Since the Normans invaded, perhaps even before then, there has been a worshipping community in Westham. Its people have lived through plague, famine, revolution and war. Throughout all this, the church has stood at the centre of the community as a living witness to Jesus Christ as Lord and King.

We hope that our building, steeped in prayer and worship for so many years, will convey something of the great truths of the Christian faith and that you will be able to visit us.

It contains many old things, but it is not a museum. It is the House of God and the centre of a living Christian community.
