Welcome to the community of St Mary Magdalene Yarm. Thank you for finding out about us.

You may just have found that ours is the church nearest to you. You will find full details of our mission, worship pattern and parish life on our website. Or you may need to talk with someone at church about something specific like a wedding or a baptism. Or you may be bereaved or otherwise distressed and need someone to help. Whatever your issue, we are here to help, to support you both in joy and sorrow, in any situation which you may want to share. Please come to church on any Thursday evening between 7 and 8pm for a consultation with one of us. Or in the first instance, email yarmchurchwarden@gmail.com to contact a Churchwarden.

We are delighted to confirm the announcement made on 15 January by the Ven Paul Ferguson. Revd W John Ford, Rural Dean of Stokesley and currently Priest in Charge of the Benefice of Stainton with Hilton and of the Benefice of Brookfield, and Chaplain to the Cleveland Police Force, has been appointed Rector of Yarm.
