Welcome to St Mary’s Parish Church. St Mary’s is a thriving, growing, laughing, loving and inclusive church. It is a welcoming and safe space.

Services are held every Sunday at 10.00 am at St Mary’s C of E Church in Stanley Lane, Eastham, Wirral CH62 0AQ. Some weeks there are also services at St Peter’s Chapel in Brookhurst Close and at the Church Centre (aka the Chapel of the Holy Spirit) in Eastham Rake.
