St Stephen Lympne and St Peter & St Paul Saltwood | Parishes in the Diocese of Canterbury

The Benefice of St Stephen Lympne and St Peter & St Paul, Saltwood comprises two Church of England parishes in the Diocese of Canterbury. There is also a Chapel of Ease at Pedlinge. Whilst retaining our own identities, we share some activities together. Many of those who worship here live locally but we offer a warm welcome to all visitors, including children, and there are refreshments after our main morning services at both churches.

We are pleased to announce that The Revd. Barry Knott has been appointed to the role of Rector Designate of the Benefice of Lympne & Saltwood with effect from 2nd July 2020. Barry will be licensed as Rector on 4th February 2021 by the Bishop of Dover. Please pray for Barry and his family in this next stage of their ministry.

Saltwood and Lympne churches will be holding weekly services once again from Sunday 6th September. Booking is essential as numbers are limited with social distancing and face coverings are mandatory. Contact Rev. Barry 0n 01303 883243 rector@saltwoodchurch.org
