STORIES OF ST PAUL'S
Welcome everyone, as Christ welcomed you, to the Glory of God.
​
For 150 years St Paul’s has been at the heart of the community of New Beckenham.
​
This virtual exhibition tells just some of the stories of our faith, people and buildings over that time.
​
Each month we are adding one storyline based around a prominent feature of the church building, but linking it to our people and our faith. By the end of 2022 we will have eight stories on permanent display.
​
They can be accessed in church by clicking on the QR codes in the information panels or via our website www.stpaulsbeckenham.org.uk
​
They are not an all embracing history, but will give visitors (on-line or to the building) a feel for this holy place and its people.
​
Our God is unchanging in his love - but over the years our people, worship styles and building have changed – and will continue to do so as we look to the future.
