Welcome to Steyning Parish Church
Join us at St Andrew’s and St Cuthman’s
All are welcome to our ancient Parish Church. Our mission for hundreds of years has been to help the people of Steyning to know, love and follow Jesus in their everyday lives, and to support their pastoral needs as they observe rites of passage, such as baptisms, weddings and funerals. Today, we are an inclusive Christian community, welcoming everybody regardless of gender, age, social background, ethnicity, sexual orientation or disability.

About us
Our building
Our notable Norman church building is usually open every day – or you can click on the photograph of our reredos below to see a 360-degree online panorama of the inside of our building and its interior lighting. Nowadays our church is dedicated to two patron saints: St Andrew the Apostle, one of Jesus’ first disciples, and St Cuthman of Steyning, the renowned builder of the first Saxon wooden church on this site.

Commissioning our new Families’ and Children’s Worker
On Sunday 1 September we were pleased to welcome Gary Pickett to St Andrew’s & St Cuthman’s as our Families’ and Children’s Worker. Gary comes with experience of similar work at other churches in the Diocese.
Fr Mark formally commissioned Gary at the 9.30 Holy Communion service, and thanked all those whose support made it possible for us to employ Gary for at least three years. A video of the commissioning can be viewed here.
