About Us
An Independent, Christian Congregation
The Church of St Leonard does not belong to the Church of England. We are an independent Christian church, blessed with an exceptional ministry team and more details about each individual can be found on our ‘ministers’ page.
We are an independent member of the Order of St Leonard (a member of Churches Together in England, and the Evangelical Alliance). Our church building stands on the estate of Wroxall Abbey. We have a regular congregation and are also delighted to welcome visitors to the area to join us - providing opportunities to share the love of Christ with travellers - another example of modern monasticism, made accessible to all.

The Church and Estate have a long and distinguished history of influential local connections. Beyond the medieval history, the church and Estate were once owned by Sir Christopher Wren, and members of his family are buried here. William Shakespeare’s aunt served at the priory, and Shakespeare’s family worshipped here.
