Update on our Activities – and how you can help
The above booklet for 2023-24 can be found [HERE]. It gives you an oversight on All Saints over the past year, our activities and projects and what we need to do to continue moving forward to ‘fund the vision’ and complete these as well as essential building maintenance.
It is with your continued support and generosity we have managed to achieve so much over the past year and longer. This is not just much needed financial support through regular planned giving and other means, but through volunteering your time. We thank you wholeheartedly for this and hope that you can continue to give generously.
Please consider helping us by making a new or increased pledge, please use the form here: [Planned Giving Pledge Form].
And, if you would like to become a volunteer at All Saints please contact our Comms Manager, Kate Shrimpton here: [email protected]
Printed Copies are also available in the church.
Lastly, do forward the booklet or share the link to the website to anyone you feel may be interested.
Thank you

All Saints is the historic parish church of Kingston, whose bounds stretched at one time from Richmond to Molesey.
It is a place of significant heritage. The first King of England – Athelstan in 925AD – was crowned here making this, arguably, the place where England began.
The church has been at the centre of Kingston life for centuries and serving the community in a variety of different ways is a top priority for us.
We have a liberal outlook and intend that our services are inclusive and graceful, without being unduly formal. Music plays an important part in our life, supporting our worship and helping us to pray.
You are very welcome to join us or make a visit.
