OUR BASIS OF FAITH
‘Churches Together in Heathfield & District unites in pilgrimage those Churches who acknowledge God’s revelation in Christ and confess the Lord Jesus Christ
as God and Saviour according to the scriptures.
We have committed ourselves to work together,
in obedience to God’s will and in the power of the
Holy Spirit’.
CommunityHeathfield is a small rural town in East Sussex which grew rapidly after the coming of the railway - later to be axed in the Beeching Plan. It has a population of about 8000. Heathfield had two parishes: Old Heathfield and Waldron but after its growth a third parish was formed - St. Richard's, and the area of Cross-in Hand developed as a part of Waldron on the main A267 road (Eastbourne to Tunbridge Wells).
