The Congregations of St Mildred's Church, Whippingham, and St James' Church, East Cowes Welcome You. We are United in our passion for God, and our heart to serve Jesus in all that we do

Welcome to our Churches

Both St Mildred’s Church, Whippingham, and St James Church, East Cowes are part of our wonderful welcoming Christian community. We are active Church of England congregations, within the wider worldwide Anglican Church.

Regardless of who we are and were we are from, we are united in our passion for God, and our heart to serve Jesus in all that we do and everywhere we go- in homes, schools, pubs, our Royal Church, and our famous Jigsaw festival!

We are encouraged by the many ways that God’s presence is transforming us, as individuals, as churches, and as communities, and we wholeheartedly invite you to be a part of this exciting time.

Please join us at either of our weekly services, or at another of our events, and get to know us over tea, coffee and fellowship- we know that you will be most welcome indeed.

God Bless,

Rev Susan Paterson and The Congregations of St Mildred’s, Whippingham, and St James, East Cowes.
