The Holy Family: Finding Safety and Hope

The Christmas story continues as Mary, Joseph and Jesus flee to Egypt to escape danger. Their journey reminds us of the importance of compassion, protection and offering safety to those in need.

The Word Made Flesh: God Among Us

The second Sunday of Christmas explores the deeper meaning of Jesus' birth. John's Gospel describes Jesus as the light of the world, inviting us to reflect on God's presence in our everyday lives.

Church Of The Holy Sepulchre

Holy Sepulchre has been welcoming worshippers and visitors in Northampton since 1100AD.

While we love our building we recognize that the church community is more than a building and our services, events, and groups all aim to bring people together.

As a registered Inclusive Church we welcome all people regardless of age, race, gender, sexuality, mental or physical abilities, or financial or social status. We fully support the ministry of women as deacons, priests, and bishops.

Services are usually followed by tea, coffee and biscuits in the adjacent Community Room.

We also know that attending a church for the first time can be a little nerve-wracking and daunting too. For this reason we have a community manager whose job it is to answer any of your questions, meet you before service, escort you into the building, introduce you to others and walk you through how we worship here. We want you to feel cared for here and not allow nerves or worries to get in the way of your worship. Just e-mail [email protected] and we can start chatting.

Similarly, if you want to attend but getting here is a challenge, e-mail as we might be able to help.
