Who We Are

We are a community of five Churches (St Stephens and SS Nicholas and Faith in Saltash, St Michael in Landrake, St Terninus in St Erney and St Mary in Botus Fleming) in South East Cornwall.

We belong to the Church of England (https://www.churchofengland.org) and are in the diocese of Truro (https://www.trurodiocese.org.uk).

You are most welcome at any of our events and to our Church Services. We are ‘Family Friendly‘ and know that young children like to move about and make a noise during services. To help keep them entertained we have an area at the back of each church where there are soft toys, books and other activities. For children and adults of all ages there is Messy Church, every third Saturday of the month.

As well as groups and courses, we also have a full calendar of social events. Click here to be added to our St Stephen’s social events email list. We also keep in touch via facebook.
