St Mary's stands at the heart of Islington. In fact, Islington began right here, where we are.

For around a thousand years, our church community has served this neighbourhood. We've seen dark times; plague, fire, persecutions and war. But we've always trusted in God and we're still here, working with others to help the people of Islington.

The history of a church like ours isn't just written by great heroes. It's written by ordinary men and women like you. Make your story be part of our story. Join us by getting involved. Our church is open to everyone. The simplest and most important way to join is to come and worship with us regularly. You'll meet new people. You'll learn new things. We'll make you welcome and try to answer your questions.
