Lifestreams at SAINT CEDD'S

Saint Cedd's Church was built in the 1950's to serve the new housing developments in the Kent Elms area. The 1980s saw the church combine with the United Reformed Church. In May 2019 Saint Cedd's became a sole church in its own right again under the Lifestreams banner.

This significant change means that the Church of England is investing in the area and in the coming years we hope to see much support for the local community, worship and celebration as the church becomes the central hub of the community. It will take a time to see the physical changes and feel the benefit but please drop in or contact us if you want to participate in the exciting future of this new church.

After what now seems a false start due to the Covid pandemic life at Saint Cedd's has settled. We work with Kings Church, to provide worship on a Sunday morning, from 10:30am whilst we outreach into the community and more pertantly the SEND community. Friday's is 'Making Waves.' And they have been making waves by transforming the outside space into a safe play area for children with SEND. Thanks to parents, carers, relatives and church volunteers alongside some generous trusts including Rosca Trust, Fowler Smith and Jones, Southend Education Trust (Community Investment Board) alongside Chelmsford Diocese.

EPIC worship takes place here on the second Sunday of each month at 7pm. It is a relaxing time full of music and quiet space, with an art table to express our emotions. We'd love more local people to come and discover  who Jesus is and what He has done for you. This is the chilled, non judgemental, relaxed atmosphere to do just that.
