St. Margaret’s is an Anglican church, part of the Diocese of Chelmsford, in the deanery of Thurrock. We have had a Christian presence in this community for at least the past 830 years!

For the past two decades St. Margaret’s has been broadly in the evangelical-charismatic tradition, engaging in both traditional and informal worship. We believe in the value of a personal ongoing relationship with God through Jesus Christ and that the Bible contains all necessary information for living the life God intended for us.

We have several congregations offering different styles of worship and service. We meet in the church building, in one of our local schools, in homes and even in the park! We have a variety of musical traditions and meet to pray together at least once every day of the week.

We believe that GROWTH is the only evidence of life so our VISION STATEMENT is:

To be a growing church in which we can deepen our relationship with God and one another

Our CORE VALUES are also based on GROWTH as follows:

G lorifying the Lord

R eleasing the Church

O utreach to the World

W arfare with the Enemy

T raining the Disciple

H ealing the Community

As a church, we are deeply committed to the community in which we live and seek to serve it in a variety of ways. The HOPE COMMITTEE, THE BALSTONIA TRUST, ReFRESH and TRANSFORMATION THURROCK are just some of the ways in which we do this.

A great deal of our time is devoted to working with SCHOOLS, CHILDREN and YOUNG PEOPLE.
