Sunday Services
​We are two parishes but one community, and we alternate Sunday Mass between Christ Church, Staincliffe and St John the Evangelist, Carlinghow.
​To find out which church is hosting this coming Sunday, please check our current Notice Sheet or get in touch with us directly.
​The Solemn Parish Mass
​Our Sunday Mass is a family-friendly and accessible service where we welcome everyone to worship God in the beauty of holiness.
​The liturgy is traditionally Catholic and follows a "High Church" pattern, including:
​The Liturgy of the Word: Scriptural readings and a homily to guide our reflection.
​The Eucharist: The celebration and administration of Holy Communion, which serves as the climax of our worship.
​Ceremony & Music: The use of incense, bells, and plainchant, accompanied by traditional hymns and beautiful vestments.
​Marian Devotion: The service concludes with the Angelus (or the Regina Coeli during the Easter season).
​Fellowship
​Worship does not end with the final blessing. We warmly invite you to stay after the service for refreshments, delicious biscuits, and a chance to socialise with the community.
