Welcome to the website for the Church of England Parish of South Shoebury. For over 900 years, people have worshipped in our churches and they have always been part of life in Shoebury

There are two churches in our parish: St Andrew's in Church Road (SS3 9EU) and St Peter's in Hinguar Street (SS3 9AN).

Remembering Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II
We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Queen Elizabeth.
St. Andrew's Church is open for private prayer and reflection from 9am - 5pm every day. You are welcome to bring flowers and leave them in the Porch. Our services on Sunday will provide an opportunity to remember the Queen and to pray for all who mourn.
