St Andrew's Mission is on Cossack Street, to the south of St Peter's. This church was a mission or district church established to serve the Delce. It had no separate ecclesiastical parish of its own and was part of St Peter's parish. The church was opened as an Anglican mission in 1889, and ceased to be used in 1973 after surviving the threat of demolition a decade before. In about 1980 it was taken over by Medway Towns Gurudwara Sabha, and now serves as a Sikh temple
