Welcome to St Mary's

Welcome to St Mary's.
We are an inclusive Anglican church situated in a vibrant and diverse part of Brighton. We welcome all who enter our doors - and also those who simply look in out of curiosity. We strive to be representative of the community in which we are situated - whether elderly or young, partnered or single, gay, bi, lesbian, trans or straight.
Fr Andrew is the Bishop's Liaison Officer for the LGBTQI communities across the Diocese of Chichester. Listen to the BBC Radio Sussex Interview on 22 January 2023

The Church of England’s General Synod has welcomed proposals which would enable same-sex couples to come to church after a civil marriage or civil partnership to give thanks, dedicate their relationship to God and receive God’s blessing.

​The Parish Church Council have overwhelmingly endorsed these proposals. Please contact Fr Andrew for more details if you would like to mark your special occasion with prayers and a blessing.
We are commencing a regular service on the third Saturday of each monh from October at 2pm which may be an opportunity, if you wish to arrange a blessing within that service.
