St
Peter and St Paul is the Church of England parish church
for Seal, near
Sevenoaks. Whoever you are, you'll find a warm welcome
at our services and activities. We believe that
everyone is loved by God and is part of his
family. Whatever your background, age, ability,
disability, gender or sexuality, whatever your level of
faith or doubt, whatever the story of your life, we'll
be glad to see you. Our ancient church is normally open during the day - many people use it - and the peaceful churchyard has beautiful views over the North Downs. It's a great place to be, and a great place to be yourself.
Vicar: Revd. Canon Anne Le Bas sealpandp@gmail.com

PLEASE NOTE: There are a lot of churches dedicated to
St Peter and St Paul in Kent (17 in the Diocese of Rochester alone). We are often confused with St Peter and St Paul, Shoreham, Ash or Teston (East Malling). There is also another church near Seal, called Seal, St Lawrence, which is a couple of miles away in the village of Stone Street. Please check that this is actually the church you are looking for, especially if you are coming for a special event or service.

Talking Village
Talking Village is back!
We will be restarting on Monday Sept 20 in Deniz' cafe in Seal High Street.
Drop in between 2 and 3.30pm any Monday, and you will find people there ready to chat. It's open to anyone, of any age, so if you're working from home, and feel the need for that "water cooler moment" you used to have in the office, or are at home caring for children, or are retired and fancy meeting some new faces, come along and join us.
You can also join us in the Church Hall (on the other side of the road from Seal Church) for coffee and chat at our Friday Group, every Friday from 10.30 - 12 noon.
We hope to restart the Saturday morning Talking Village session in Seal Library soon - watch this space for more details.

Would you like
to get married at Seal Church?
We'll be delighted to help.
It is nearly always possible for opposite sex couples to be married here at Seal Church, even if you don't live in the parish. Just get in touch with the vicar to talk about it. Sadly, we aren't allowed to marry same-sex couples yet.
Weddings cost between £489 and £774 depending on what "extras" you have, but if money is a problem we may still be able to help, so don't let that be a barrier.
Church weddings don't have to be big or fancy. Brides don't have to wear white. You don't have to be churchgoers. We'll be happy to help you plan a wedding that suits you, as far as it is legally and practically possible to do so.
