Hunsdon Church is an Evangelical Anglican Church; a family that would be delighted to welcome you as new brothers and sisters, rejoicing together in the love God has shown us in his Son, Jesus Christ.

We hope you will come to worship with us on Sundays at 11am or online via our website and that you will want to join in with our other activities.

Sitting on the back doorstep of Henry VIII's hunting lodge, the church of St Dunstan, Hunsdon is a serious contender for the title of "First church in England to hold a service of worship in the Church of England." (Would you argue if Henry was that close?!)

Today, the Royals don't get here much, but the rest of us continue to worship without them, and not only on Sundays...
