Welcome, to the St. Aidan’s Parish Church website.
St Aidan’s is a Church of England Parish Church, serving our community.
The Parish is the area bounded by the A127, Belfairs Woods and Eastwood Road North.
We are part of Hadleigh Deanery, consisting of the churches in the areas of Leigh-on-Sea, Eastwood, Hadleigh, Thundersley, Benfleet and Canvey Island.
We are also part of the Diocese of Chelmsford, which covers the whole of Essex and five East London Boroughs.
The site will keep you up to date on all the current things going on at the Church. The weekly Pew Slip, which you can download, will keep you up to date with what is happening. Upcoming events and News will highlight the latest news.
There are lots of things going on, and you are most welcome to join us.
We are here to worship God and nurture faith. We are also here to welcome our local community and serve you as best we can.
