Welcome to St Paul's Church Grove Park, Chiswick

St Paul's has been used for Christian worship since 1872 and we would be delighted if you joined us. Christians of all denominations are welcome here, as are those searching for God and indeed the simply curious. 

SERVICES AT ST PAUL'S

Our main Sunday service is at 10am. The church is spacious, and there is plenty of room for people to sit as far apart as they wish. Hand gel is available and the church is well ventilated. The church is usually open for private prayer and worship. If you need to talk, our vicar Michael Riley is on 020 8994 4387 or michaelc.riley@virgin.net.  

The ever popular St Paul's Quiz Night is back on Friday 28 January at 7pm for a 7:30pm start, and we're very pleased to say it will be held as a live event! Teams make up tables of eight; if you'd like to come but do not have a team let us know and we will find you a table to join! Tables should bring their own supper and the church will provide cutlery, crockery and glasses. This year we will NOT be supplying cheese and biscuits because of Covid concerns, so please bring all the food and nibbles you will require to fuel your mighty brains! However, we WILL be providing a cash bar for beer, wine and soft drinks and politely request that attendees support this as part of our fundraising efforts for 2022, and don't BYOB! Tickets are £10.00 per person, to be collected on the night. To reserve a table or a seat at a table, please contact the Vicar: michaelc.riley@virgin.net  or  sara.m.hodson70@gmail.com

HELP FOR THE PHILIPPINES

Over 20 years ago, St Paul’s helped raise money to start an office on the island of Bohol for the Philippine Self Foundation. It inspired Peter Ryan to subsequently set up the MicroLoan Foundation. On December 19th 2021, there was a large typhoon in the Philippines which swept through the island. It has destroyed houses, livelihoods, hit power and water supplies and over 110 people have lost their lives.  

The seed we helped plant has continued to thrive and Peter has now set up a fundraising page using Links International to help provide much needed money which will help rebuild clients lives. Any help you can give would be appreciated.
