Welcome to the Parish Church of St Brelade including the Fishermen's Chapel. In a picturesque part of the island, the Parish Church sits overlooking one of the best known beaches in Jersey. There are two church buildings here, the Parish Church, and the Fishermen's Chapel. This occupies the site of the original wooden church built by St Brelade in the 6th Century. This website gives information about the church, and provides notice of events and services. |

Foreword
by the Rev. Mark Bond, Rector of St Brelade
“In the service of all with love and hospitality”
I am pleased to welcome you to our website and hope you enjoy looking at it. St Brelade’s is thought, by some, to be the oldest Christian site in Jersey and the current buildings have been serving their local community for about 1000 years.
That community is very flexible as not only do we serve a resident population of 10,500 people, we also have many thousands of visitors each year, who come to services, to walk around the church or simply to sit, pray and experience the tangible presence of God is this beautiful place.
For us the most important thing is that everyone is welcome. Christian hospitality is central to our church’s life and our worship, which is set within the broad Anglican tradition.
