Welcome to the website for St Mary's Church Reigate. We are a large, active and growing church with a range of services, activities and events that aim to meet the needs of our members and of our wider community. In all we do our aim is to draw people of all ages and backgrounds into a deeper understanding and experience of the Christian life – life with God at the centre and we believe, as God intended it for us all.
Located on Chart Lane, to the East of Reigate Town Centre, St Mary’s is the Parish Church of Reigate and includes the Town Centre within its Parish. We are part of the Church of England (the Anglican Church in England) and have a Bible based ‘open evangelical’ worship tradition, welcoming people from a variety of backgrounds and stages in their ‘journey of faith’.
We have 3 services on a Sunday – the 9.00 am traditional communion from the Book of Common Prayer (typically with a congregation of 50 or so of all ages), our main 10.30am Service with lots of families and children’s and youth groups (typically 350 to 400 people in total) and our 6.30pm service (with around 100) with a more contemporary feel. See ‘Services and Events’ for more details.
