St Philips Church, W8

Welcome!

St Philips is a welcoming and friendly Anglican church in Kensington, bordering Earl’s Court.  We have many young families with children, but a few of us are in our 90s! Most of us live in the neighbouring streets. We celebrate our faith, but have plenty of room for those with questions and don’t discourage them.
