Worship in Church

Currently on hold until December due to coronavirus restrictions…

  • St Bartholomew’s Church, Marsden, 9:15am
    • Holy Communion every Sunday
    • “Family friendly” on the 1st Sunday of every month – this service uses easier language and is shorter to make things easier for families with young children
  • Shred Sunday School, Upper Slaithwaite
    • Sunday school is currently suspended as the venue is too small to safely gather during the coronavirus, but will start again as soon as possible.
  • St James Church, Slaithwaite, 11:15am
    • Holy Communion every Sunday
    • “Family friendly” on the 1st Sunday of every month – this service uses easier language and is shorter to make things easier for families with young children

Everyone is welcome

Come to this table,
not because you must, but because you may,
not because you are strong, but because you are weak.
Come, not because any goodness of your own gives you a right to come,
but because you need mercy and help.
Come, because you love the Lord a little
and would like to love him more.
Come, because he loved you and gave himself for you.
Come and meet the risen Christ, for we are his Body.

Everyone is welcome to join us for worship at St Bartholomew’s, St James’ and Shred Churches. We make every effort to extend a warm welcome whether you are new here, whether you are returning, or whether you are here every week – the welcome is the welcome that Jesus Christ offers…

Jesus said: “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Jesus also talked about receiving faith, “Ask and it will be given. Seek and you will find. Knock and the door will be opened for you.”

The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power,
and the glory are yours
now and for ever.
Amen.
