Welcome
Welcome to St Barnabas Church, Pimlico
Come and join us! We have a number of services and events each week. We are a small (and growing) inclusive church community - welcoming all.
Our parish has been ‘serving and encouraging’ people living, working and passing through the area since 1850. It is a beautiful Grade 1 listed church - which is in an of itself well worth a visit. We are actively involved in our parish school and we are seeking greater engagement with the local and wider community.
Our Parish Priest, Fr John Pearson-Hicks joined St Barnabas in September 2015 and since becoming the ‘full-time’ priest (Sept 2017) we have been able to be open more regularly and hold more events and services. If you would like to find out more about baptisms and weddings, or if you would just like to have a conversation about what we are doing, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly on frhicks@me.com to arrange a time to meet.
