Welcome to our church’s website! We hope you find these pages helpful and informative.
The information here is only a small part of our message but we hope it will encourage you to find out more about the wonderful religion of Spiritualism, how it can help you and our troubled world, and maybe encourage you to pay us a visit.
What do we believe?
We believe that, whilst on this earthly plane, every individual has both a physical and spiritual body. The physical body is, if you like, our ‘space suit’ which enables us to exist, move about and experience the physical world. Our Spirit body (the energy, or power source, that keeps us alive) is here to learn the lessons which we need to experience in order to progress.
We believe that our individual Spirits are each a facet of the one Great Spirit and we are, therefore, brothers and sister and should be treated equally. God is our father and is responsible for and loves us all.We believe that we each have a Spirit, a small part of the energy, power, intelligence which we call God. This Spirit or Soul survives physical death and moves on to other higher plains in the Spirit world according to its development and how much progress it has made. Progress is available to every Human Soul.
We believe that we are all responsible for our own actions both good and bad and must make recompense for any misdeeds either in this world or the next.
We believe that highly attuned people, we call mediums, can contact our loved ones in the Spirit world to prove that they continue to exist, still love and care about us and do whatever they can to help and guide us.
Healing is a very important part of our religion and we believe that the Spirit world can send healing energies to those in need. Most Spiritualist churches have trained dedicated healers who give of their time freely and on a regular basis to help others who are suffering from ill health or just feeling low. We send out absent healing at each of our services. Spiritual Healing does not rely on pills or potions, can do no harm, and is therefore very safe.Spiritualism is a religion, a philosophy and a science. It does not have the usual dogma of most other religions and is a voyage of discovery where you are learning all the time. It gives you an enormous sense of well being and self-assurance.
We believe that our loved ones’ spirit has survived their physical death, that they are now closer to us than they ever were in this physical world and that they are beside us giving us support, especially when we are feeling low.
Our Spirit friends are just a thought away; we are never alone.
What do we hope to achieve?
Through the service of our Mediums, at our services and meetings, our main objective is to prove that each individual Spirit survives physical death. Once you realise this, you start to view life from a different perspective. Material things become less important and the need to serve your fellow man becomes the main criterion.

Our Church has been on our Surrey Road site in West Wickham since 1962 when the Church, which had previously met in local halls, purchased the building. Ken Marshall, our then President, negotiated the purchase from the Baptist Church and arranged the mortgage through the Spiritualists’ National Union (SNU).Thankful to own our premises, the Church soon raised the money to pay off the debt.
The Church later became affiliated to the SNU and, although independently administered by our own Committee under the direction of the President, it is now in Trust to the SNU.
We are a democratic organisation and members are encouraged to have an input into the administration of the Church.
The Arthur Findlay College, Stansted Hall. The headquarters of the SNU Affiliated to, and held in Trust by, the Spiritualists’ National Union (SNU), we are governed by their rules and regulations.The SNU Headquarters are at The Arthur Findlay College, Stansted Hall, Mountfitchet, Essex where a comprehensive programme of spiritual education and development takes place all year round.
Stansted Hall was gifted to the SNU by J. Arthur Findlay, MBE, JP and, in accordance with his wishes is administered by the Union as a College for the Advancement of Psychic Science.
For further details of the SNU and educational courses available at the college, please visit their websites: www.arthurfindlaycollege.org or www.snu.org.uk

The President and Committee Members of our Church in West Wickham are elected annually at our AGM according to the SNU rules.The Committee are responsible for, amongst other things: organising meetings, booking Mediums, keeping accurate financial records, paying the bills, arranging social events and keeping the fabric of our building, furniture and fittings in good condition.
As you may imagine, running and administering a church requires enormous amounts of patience, endurance, humour and downright hard work!
It takes a dedicated band of people who can remain calm and serene
whilst keeping all the plates spinning
to bring you a wonderful programme of services, workshops, evenings of mediumship and events.
