Its northwestern border meets the boundary of the Parish of Saint Thomas’ of Headcorn, served from Holy Family, Parkwood, Maidstone.
Its north eastern border meets the boundary of the Parish of Saint Simon Stock in South Ashford in the village of Bethersden.
Its eastern border meets the boundary of the parish of The Virgin Mother of Good Counsel, based in Hythe, which serves the villages of the Romney Marsh.
The Christmas Tree Festival held at Zion Baptist Church was very successful. Over 2000 visitors admired the trees decorated on the theme of The Pantomime and Ballet, by many of the local churches, schools and voluntary organisations. Donations amounted to over £779 to be divided between Team Ben Hammond and Tenterden Christmas Cheer. St. Andrew’s entry was well received and the overall first prize went to The Memory Club, which meets in our Parish Centre.
