All Saints Church and

St Christopher's Church   

Boughton Aluph, Kent

 

 

 

Lambeth Palace, London  SE1, October 1952

 

"No-one driving along the road from Chilham to Ashford can fail to observe the massive tower of Boughton Aluph church standing as its eminence to the right of the road. The church has a most impressive exterior and a noble interior. It is a special treasure among all the lovely churches of Kent."

Geoffrey Cantuar

 

The introduction from a letter written by the then Archbishop of Canterbury (Geoffrey Fisher) in October 1952 in support of the appeal to raise funds to save this beautiful but war-damaged church from collapse.

WHAT'S ON?
Next Sunday 24th March is Palm Sunday when we shall be celebrating Holy Communion in a processional service and a re-enactment of the Easter story, led by Rev'd Linda Cross at St Christopher's church on the Green, starting at 09.30. There'll be coffee and biscuits afterwards, as usual, and of course everyone is welcome.  Do come along to this lead-up to Easter, with Spring finally in the air.

WHAT ELSE IS ON?  See here what's planned for 2024.
