St Jude & St Paul's Church Those who live in love live in union with God
welcome to st jude & st paul’s church, mildmay
We are a Church of England parish on the Islington / Hackney border, where all are welcome. We serve a local area renowned for its long history of diversity and our congregation broadly reflects the varied population. Our services are available online through our YouTube channel, and you would be very welcome to come and worship God with us!
family crafts and fun
We work in partnership with local schools to invite families with primary school age children to fun, creative and spiritual activities. We create and curate beautiful craft in the church garden which blesses the community we are part of.
Do enjoy these photos of our Christmas Sparkle and Autumn Thanksgiving events, and the Poppy Field planted by children of St Jude and St Paul’s Primary School in November.
We will be exploring the theme of Hope through the season of Lent and looking forward to Easter. All children at St Jude and St Paul’s Primary School will take part in the launch on Friday 12th February at school and at home. Further events to follow after half-term - do look out for signs of Hope in our community!
