History

Originally named "St. Michael & All Angels", our church was built as a portable Garrison church in 1901. The first known service was held on 31 March 1901 (Palm Sunday). The church was renamed "St. Barbara's Garrison Church" on 1 October 1967 and became a listed building in 1984.

Since the closure of the army camp, the area has been undergoing major development work to create the new Mindenhurst Village. St. Barbara's, no longer a garrison church, has become a church plant of St. Paul's in Camberley, who provide the support needed until it is able to run fully independently. As part of the Village development, the church building will undergo major renovation work which will mark a new chapter for the church after its 120 years life.

During this development work our temporary premises and facilities are located in the brand new Mindenhurst School
