Service of Holy Communion with hymns and readings. Incense on Festival days

A quiet, reflective service with Holy Communion

The Stations of the Cross or the Way of the Cross are any series of fourteen images depicting Jesus Christ on the day of his crucifixion and accompanying prayers. These stations are derived from the imitations of the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem which is a traditional processional route symbolizing the path Jesus walked from the Lions' Gate to Mount Calvary. The objective of the stations is to help the Christian faithful to make a spiritual pilgrimage through contemplation of the Passion of Christ.

St John's Wednesday Welcome is open every Wednesday morning from 9.30am-11.30pm.

We are part of the National Place of Welcome Network.

Places of Welcome is a growing network of hospitality run by local community groups who want to make sure that everyone in their area has a place to go for a friendly face, a cup of tea and a conversation if and when they need it.

We provide free refreshments of tea, coffee, biscuits and toast, a friendly face, a listening ear and a range of activities and services.

We offer information about local activities and services that may be of help or interest and we are visited on a regular basis by Tameside's NHS Be Well Team offering health and wellbeing advice. We also provide a Listening Service and Bereavement Counselling.

You could take part in the craft activities, play Bingo, enjoy a therapeutic hand massage, manicure or join in the chair aerobics!

Come and see us - we would love to welcome you!
