St Andrews Church Reading Street Broadstairs

Who we are

St. Andrew’s Reading Street is a growing church set in the quiet suburbs of the seaside town of Broadstairs on the Isle of Thanet. From appearances our location feels surprisingly rural for a church situated within the urban sprawl of Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate. We are very committed to revitalising and growing our church and we try to do that by being a fellowship of people that witnesses our love for Jesus in serving the people around us. We are a church which seeks to be rooted in Scripture and attentive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Our worship is led by a robed choir and our style is fairly traditional as we seek to appeal to a broad church.
