Welcome to St Mary'sWelcome to St Mary's.
We are an inclusive Anglican church situated in a vibrant and diverse part of Brighton. We welcome all who enter our doors - and also those who simply look in out of curiosity. We strive to be representative of the community in which we are situated - whether elderly or young, partnered or single, gay, bi, lesbian, trans or straight. Fr Andrew is the Bishop's Liaison Officer for the LGBTQI communities across the Diocese of Chichester.
