Hornsey Parish Church is part of the Church of England in the Edmonton Area of the Diocese of London, which in turn is part of the worldwide Anglican Communion. We are a diverse and vibrant church with a congregation representative of the varied community that Hornsey is: young and older; married, single and partnered, straight and gay; British and international. The style of our worship is focused upon the Eucharist. We see our liturgical life as very important: not fussy and celebrated with attention and care. There is something for everyone at Hornsey Parish Church and we hope that can include you too.
Please come and see us – you will be very welcome

Rector’s Jottings (06/2019) |
Dear friends,
On Tuesday I went to Northumberland for the day. The reason for spending many hours on a train for just a short short visit was to see very elderly friend of mine, Brother Reginald SSF, who is in hospital.
I first met Reginald when I was a novice Franciscan friar (1995-96) in the Society of St Francis. This is the community that ex-Pastoral Assistant David Lanstrom is a part of. Reginald is now in his late nineties, and is very frail indeed, teetering on the brink of heavenly life. Thus I was keen to take the opportunity to see him one last time.
I look back on my days as a friar, albeit fleetingly short, with enormous gratitude and affection. Much happened in this very intense period of my life, when I learnt a great deal about myself, about God, and about prayer. To pray alongside brothers daily was a great privilege, and represents a time when I felt very guided in my prayer life. I was encouraged to try new ways to pay, and to develop a more regular rhythm of prayer.Read more
