We are part of the Church of England within the Diocese of Manchester and under the Pastoral oversight of the Bishop of Beverley. Our worship is very much based upon a catholicity that embraces strong liturgical practices with an Anglican - Catholic Tradition, although we endeavour to make sure that it is relaxed and presented with smiles on our faces.
Our main Sunday Service is at 11.30 am and we welcome all faithful people to share the Sacrament, Words of Scripture, the Liturgy and Fellowship in Christ with everyone.
On Tuesday at 6.00 pm the Church Office is open to receive bookings for Baptisms, arrange a Wedding or the requisite Banns. Alternatively, if you wish to speak with the Parish Priest direct, he can be contacted on 01942 673519.
