God is: You are loved

The Church of England in Marsden and Slaithwaite is made up of three churches: St Bartholomew’s in Marsden, St James in Slaithwaite, and ‘Shred‘ (a mission Church) in Upper Slaithwaite. We trust in God, and offer loving Christian service to the local community.

Church Community Cafés

We have two Community Cafés:

Wednesdays 10:30am to 12:30pm at St. James, Slaithwaite

Thursdays 10am to 2pm at St. Bartholomew’s Marsden

(Both of these cafés offer good quality hot food and something to drink in a warm environment where you can meet others from the village and find companionship. We offer this food and drink freely from our Christian love for our neighbours. These are not ‘religious’ cafés: whatever your faith, or even if you have none: everyone is very welcome.
