Welcome to St James Church
We serve the communities of Biddenham, the developments of Deep Spinney, Great Denham, St. Andrew’s, St Mary’s and Saxon Park. Whoever you are, we welcome you to be part of our loving Christian family. We welcome children, they are valued members of our community, and we love the creative noise they make. Please visit us to share in the freedom that is given through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Worship with us in our beautiful and ancient building, situated at the end of Church End, Biddenham. This is a place of peace, and we are here to support you in moments of tragedy, and in moments of celebration.
With us, you will find the presence of our loving God.

Safeguarding
St James Church, Biddenham, as part of the Diocese of St Albans within the Church of England, is fully committed to safeguarding as a central part of its ministry and community life.
Safeguarding involves promoting a safer culture, protecting children, young people, and vulnerable adults, preventing abuse, and responding sensitively to those affected. The Church upholds a “Whole Church” approach, ensuring consistent policies and shared responsibility across all roles and bodies.
Everyone associated with St James has a duty to help maintain a safe environment and reflect Christ’s compassionate ministry. Any safeguarding concerns should be reported immediately to the parish Safeguarding Lead or Vicar, and if involving church leadership, to the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor or local council.
