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. All of our services are followed by tea, ☕️ coffee, biscuits 🍪 and some time to be together. We’d love to welcome you and get to know you at any of our church venues.
