A bit more...

St Mary Bredin (SMB) is a vibrant evangelical Anglican Church community in the centre of Canterbury. We are committed to God’s call to ‘Be Holy and Be a Blessing’: to live lives that are set apart for God yet reach out beyond our walls with the love of Christ.

Countless students have made SMB their home over the years. It's a place to find community, grow in discipleship, and get involved in serving through a variety of ministries.

SMB is a community of all ages and stages of life. From thriving children’s and youth ministries to seniors groups, the church provides something for everyone. We're not shy about getting involved in the community - running lunch clubs, debt relief programmes, and activity days. We also partner with missions abroad and regularly visit our partners JENGA in Uganda.

Thursdays 7.00pm: Student Night
Sundays 10.30am: Morning service

Our prayer for students in Canterbury is that they may know Jesus and the confident hope we have in Him, find deep community and experience the transforming power of God in their own lives - prompting them to reach out to others with the good news of Jesus.

To that end, as a student here, you will be prayed for, invested in and mentored in your walk with Jesus as you live life alongside others.

Each week, we meet on:

Thursdays at 7.00pm for Student Night: We have a meal together, have fun, pray and delve into teaching.
