Our services
The last six months have been worrying for everyone, and it was heartbreaking not being able to meet in person as a church family. But we're very pleased that we've held services in church since the beginning of September - as well as continuing to provide an online service.
|
Services in church
Services in church are at 10AM on Sundays. If you come to church please be aware that you will be required to wear a mask, and there are various other restrictions in place. You can see all the details on our website.
|
Services online
If you don't feel ready or able to come to church you can watch our online service from home. This service contains the same readings, prayers and sermon you would get if you came to church - but with songs and hymns by our Worship Team. Feel free to sing along as loudly as you like!
|
You can also watch the video at any time on Sunday, even watch it many times if you want! Please do consider sharing the service on social media, and sending the link to friends and family who may enjoy it. We'd love more people to get to know our special church.
|
So there are lots of ways you can see our service, but if you have any technical problems please contact help@stpetersbirstall.co.uk and we'll try to get you sorted.

900 year stone carving
|
We'd like to thank Susan Clarke for this beautiful stone carving, presented to the church a couple of weeks ago. It's fantastic to see the talents we have in our church family, and this carving will no doubt be a prominent focal point in church for many years to come.

Did you know?
There's lots of information about the history of the church, including close-up pictures of the Frampton mural, in the "History" section of our website. In the future we hope, with the help of our keen historians, to enhance this section even more.

|
- 4th October: Sunday worship (in church and online)
