WELCOME TO THURSTABLE & WINSTREE CHURCHES
Our parishes are all committed to the Chelmsford diocesan strategy “Transforming Presence”. We seek to be a Christian presence in each of the communities we serve and all of our churches are keen to welcome new people and to grow spiritually and numerically. This is an exciting time to join us as we move together into a new stage
of our common life.
Thurstable and Winstree is a Team Ministry formed by the joining together of three neighbouring benefices, comprising nine parishes. Each of our churches has its own distinctive character but we have strong and growing relationships across our parishes.
