Welcome to Thames Ditton United Reformed Church - a church founded in 1804 in this lovely Thames-side
village. Our Sunday services, which include a Junior Church, are at 10.45am, with a Communion Service
following once a month. Everyone is welcome. We also welcome visitors to our various social events.
We are part of a cluster of four United Reformed Churches, Kingston, New Malden, Tolworth and Thames
Ditton, served by three full-time ministers, two men and one woman, and one woman minister who gives 50%
of her time.
In 1972 the Congregational Church of England & Wales, and the Presbyterian Church of England joined together
to form the United Reformed Church. The Church has always worked for increased union between churches, and this
is certainly so in Thames Ditton, where we work closely with the Church of England at St Nicholas, and also with
other churches in the neighbourhood.

The Rev'd Gerald Moule became minister of Thames Ditton URC on 1st March 2003, devoting 50% of his time to us and
the remaining 50% to the church at Richmond Green.
Before moving south to Surrey, Gerald was Church of Scotland Minister at St Andrew's in Moffat, linked to Wamphray
Parish Church in the Borders, for 24 years, from 1975 to 1999. Earlier he had served as Assistant Minister at the West Church
of St Nicholas in Aberdeen, and as an assistant minister in two churches in Edinburgh, and for a summer in Midland, Michigan, USA.
He was ordained by the Presbytery of Aberdeen in 1974.
