St Stephen's serves the community in and around Whelley and, partnering with all of the other churches in the parish we host JED's Pantry and a welcoming warm space provision.
We are largely traditional in our style of worship, however our all-age service on every third Sunday is much more informal.
We aim to be, and have been told by others, that we are an opening and welcoming community.
Support our ministry and mission
The parish of Wigan North East is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), (PSOs). The Diocese of Liverpool’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advises our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the Parish Safeguarding Officer or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority's Children or Adults Services.
If you have any safeguarding concerns or issues on a safeguarding matter then contact our Parish Safeguarding Officer via email: [email protected] or telephone North East Hub Church Office 07759 252501.
