St Mary's Kemsing is the parish church in the village of Kemsing in Kent. We have a wide range of services, because we are aware that we serve the whole of our village and beyond. Children are very welcome at all services (although some are more tailored to them than others).
We love to welcome visitors, so if you're in the area do drop in. Equally, if you've just moved to the village of Kemsing, we'd love to hear from you - we like to meet new people, and we have a welcome pack of literature about the area we'd be pleased to give you.
There are refreshments served after many of our services, as these are a good way to get to know one another.
