Welcome to the website of the Benefice of St Paul's Bentley Common, St Nicholas' Kelvedon Hatch and St Thomas' Navestock. The three churches are located in a pleasant semi-rural area of Essex between Brentwood and Chipping Ongar. The website contains a lot of information about the three churches and will give you a flavour of the spiritual life here. We hope you will find the information you are looking for and maybe even visit us. You will be very welcome. All three churches are open to the general public every day from about 9.30am until 5.00pm for quiet prayer and reflection. You can leave prayer requests and sign the visitors' book.
