Who we are

Christ Church is a family of Christians.

We are not perfect but we try our best to live as Jesus asks us to.

Because we love God, and think the world of Jesus, we want to tell other people about our faith. Jesus said the most important thing is love so it’s really important that we care for one another.

Our doors are wide open to anyone who wants to come inside and an important part of our work is to welcome people who come for baptisms, weddings and funerals. They are really important because they’re a way in which we get to know people who aren’t yet part of Christ Church. We hope you come and join us!

We run courses throughout the year to help those who have questions about God find some answers and regularly reach out into the community to meet people where they are. Please do get in touch if you would like to find out more.

Leader Bio:
Reverend Canon Simon Heron joined us as Vicar of Christ Church on 6th May 2020.​

Following a short-lived career as a scaffolder, and a longer one as a trader in the City of London, Simon trained for the Anglican ministry between 2005 and 2007 at Ridley Hall in Cambridge.​

He served his curacy in Rochester Diocese, before moving to North Essex in 2011 where he has been Vicar of three churches and Area Dean of the Harwich Deanery.

Simon would describe himself as a classic extrovert who finds himself enthused and stimulated by being around others. He has a particular passion for seeing children and young people come to know Jesus, and finding fresh and innovative ways to communicate the gospel.

He is a keen cook and songwriter, whose ambition sometimes overshadows his talent!

Simon is married to Gill, who has been a primary school teacher and currently works with a charity providing pastoral and spiritual care in schools.

They have three children, Christopher, who is married to Megan, Benjamin and Katy.​   Edit
