God’s people at Christ Church are a family. A welcoming, warm, friendly, and supportive family.
We rejoice in our being a family made up of all ages, and enjoy a whole host of gatherings and events throughout the year. Two words which say much about Christ Church are: Warmth and JOY! Christ Church is a lively place, celebrating the Joy which we find in Jesus Christ, and the warmth that we find in one another.
The parish is extremely fortunate in having its own Church Voluntary Aided Primary School which is just next door to the church, a distance which means children and staff can enjoy a walk to the church for services as well as the Parish priest, Fr Ryan, leading weekly acts of worship at the school.
The worshipping congregation at Christ Church is committed to serving God in this place and, in part, this happens through the events we hold and a genuine desire to invite others into the blessings we, ourselves, are receiving. You are very welcome.
Our parish of Carnforth, Christ Church is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Blackburn’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO Paul Threlfall ([email protected] / 07904254925) or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor Cath Smith ([email protected] / 07711 485170) . If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
