Christ Church, Staincliffe

Welcome to the United Benefice of Christ Church, Staincliffe and St John the Evangelist, Carlinghow. We are a vibrant community of Christians in Batley, West Yorkshire, dedicated to spiritual growth, fellowship, and the service of God.

Tradition and Pastoral Care

Situated within the Diocese of Leeds, we are affiliated with The Society and are under the episcopal oversight of the Bishop of Beverley. Our parish is further supported by a Priest of the Society of the Holy Cross (SSC), ensuring dedicated pastoral care and a steadfast commitment to the Catholic tradition within the Church of England.

Our Liturgical Life

Our worship is centred on the daily celebration of the Mass. We embrace a traditional "High Church" liturgy, designed to engage the senses and lift the soul through:

Sacred Ceremony: The use of beautiful vestments, incense, and bells to create a truly prayerful atmosphere.

Musical Heritage: A devotion to traditional hymns and the timeless practice of plainchant.

The Communion of Saints: A deep-rooted devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and all the Saints, honouring their place in our spiritual journey.

An Open Invitation

Our doors are open to everyone, regardless of where you are on your journey of faith. We believe in a warm welcome for all and encourage you to join us for our services and community events.

If you would like to learn more about our community, or wish to enquire about Baptisms, Weddings, or Funerals, please contact our Parish Priest.
