We are dedicated to being a transforming presence
in our community, open and welcoming to all
and serving all.
Our Mission
The Thurstable and Winstree Team Ministry is a team of 9 parish churches serving village communities in North-East Essex. We meet together to worship God, to learn, to enjoy fellowship and to go out into the world to live as Christians. Our regular activities include Messy Church for families, bible study, schools visits, coffee mornings, concerts and other community events. Visitors and new members are always welcome, as are enquiries about christenings and weddings.
