JohnPaul Parish
We are one parish and one church, but with two buildings about 1.5miles apart. We are continuing to learn to work together and are trying to focus on what unites us, rather than that which divides us.

St Paul's Accrington
Welcome to Accrington St Paul. We are now a joint Parish with Baxenden St John. Services are held at St Paul's at 9am and St John's at 10.30am. Where there is a 5th Sunday there will be a joint service at 10am. The location will alternate between St Paul's and St John's. Refreshments are usually served after the services. Children's church takes place during the services except on the first Sunday of the month (from January 2023) when both churches have an All-Age Service.
We are learning to work together for the benefit of our community; and to grow closer to God as we develop our prayer life and discipleship.
We welcome ALL of ANY age, those with a lot of church background, those with some background and especially those with none! Our prayer and desire is that, whoever you are and wherever you are up to in life, we can help you meet with the Living and Loving God. We hope our services will help you pray to Him, praise Him, share with Him, listen to Him and seek to live for Him. If you have questions about Jesus, Christianity, or are a new Christian, we would love to help you. If you would like to get more involved, please contact us

We are not perfect churches; we will get things not quite right. We are learning to work together for the benefit of our community; and to grow closer to God as we develop our prayer life and discipleship.
