WELCOME
Welcome to the Parish of St Andrew and St Mark, Surbiton. The Parish is a community of some 11,000 souls in southwest London, in the Diocese of Southwark. The population includes many diverse groups, including commuters and students from Kingston University. Many of our congregation come from outside the parish boundaries.
There are two churches in the parish: St Mark's is a notable landmark at the top of St Mark's Hill, dating from 1845 but largely rebuilt after being bombed in 1940. St Andrew's, at the corner of St Andrew's Road, is one of the finest surviving examples of the work of the Victorian architect Blomfield.
We have recently carried out an audit of our community and its needs, as part of "Realising the Vision" of our role here. We are called by God to be an effective Christian community, witnessing to the truth of the Gospel, and caring for those around us. We are committed to making Surbiton a better place to live and work.
"Seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you ... and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare." Jeremiah 29:7
