Welcome to Christ Church Stannington, we are a community of people learning to love God and to love our neighbours and to be more Christlike in our lives.

We hope that through our worship and witness, others too of all ages may find faith and grow in faith. Do join us.

Queen Elizabeth II 

Gracious God, we give thanks for the life of your servant Queen Elizabeth, for her faith and dedication to duty. Bless our nations as we mourn her death and may her example continue to inspire us; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Covid safety

The quieter 9am service is more suitable for those still anxious about Covid, and some attendees still choose to wear face coverings. During this 9am Holy Communion services, the wafers are dipped into the wine, to reduce the risk of transmission, but we are now sharing a common cup at the 10.30am services.

Refreshments are now available between the 9am and 10.30am services.
