About
We are a thriving Church of England parish in the Diocese of Chichester. St Wilfrid’s Church welcomes visitors from within as well as outside the parish boundary, and it is our great pleasure to welcome anyone from all walks of life to take part in the life of the church. We also welcome a number of families who have the intention of sending their children to Bishop Luffa School.
We look to encourage the deepening of faith for all ages, and alongside our regular services there is a Junior Church run by a dedicated group of volunteers and a monthly family service in which children are encouraged to participate.
Our Priest-in-Charge is Fr Phillip Amey, who also serves as the Chaplain at Bishop Luffa. Fr Phillip was a navy chaplain, based at St Ann’s in Portsmouth dockyards. He has previously been a parish priest in Southsea and Purbrook. Prior to his ordination, Fr Phillip was a social worker.
