About us
At St Christopher’s Church we have a passion to share the love of God with our local community and those around us. We are a welcoming and friendly church community. All are welcome. We meet every Sunday at 10am for worship. Our services currently consist of Morning Worship and Holy Communion services with songs and liturgy. We serve refreshments after the service in our small hall.

St Christopher’s Church
St. Christopher's Church was built in 1961 as a dual-purpose church and community centre. Later church halls were added and the original building became a full-time church. In 2000/01 as a Millennium project, the front of the church was extended and a spire and bells were added to make the building look more like a church.
Church Windows: the Church has a set of 10 Tom Denny stained glass windows which depict 10 different parables in the Bible. We also have a liturgical 'East' window by Sebastian Comper, and at the front of the building we have two new etched glass windows by the artist and painter Nicholas Mynher.
We have 6 church bells in our spire; these bells are the lightest ring of six bells in a church in the world.
Our Church is open every day from 9am to 3pm. ( Please note due to Building work taking place between Monday 11th May to Saturday 20th June our worship space is closed from Monday to Saturday) Sunday Services will continue as usual.
St. Christopher's is part of the South Cheltenham Team. The team is comprised of St Christopher’s, St. Philip & St. James Leckhampton, St. Peter's Leckhampton, St. Stephen's Tivoli and CNC with Emmanuel.
