St. Matthew's is a lively, growing Church of England church situated in the High Brooms area of Tunbridge Wells.
We believe God's message is vital for the world in which we live and we seek to present that message in a way that is appropriate to our community.
Our services are relaxed and informal. We meet together to worship God, to hear and respond to His word and to support each other in the Christian life. We want to be open to all God wants to do in our lives through His Holy Spirit.
