Come to the Methodist church tonight (18:30) to hear this motley crew's angelic voices (along with the rest of the choir).
Nine Lessons and Carols, the potential for learning something is significant, the potential for having a lovely evening even more so.

Just two days until our famous Christmas Eve donkey service (at 16:00). If you don't know what the donkey's about, come along! You'd be a mule to miss it.

Join us for our #Christingle service. It's a beautiful service of carols and candles. Children are at the center, both in our worship and because we will be collecting money for @childrensociety which supports children suffering from exclusion and neglect.

...each one has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for building up. (1 Corinthians 14:26)

Join us for a 2019 Election Hustings. The candidates standing in Tatton will be there.

Come and see Hugh Lupton and Nick Hennessey regail us with stories of Robin Hood and other English radicals. Mischievous, poignant, radical, this is storytelling at its best.

Our animal services are the absolute cat's meow. We had a howling good time on Sunday. Some of the congregation were rather sheepish at first, but they were all horsing around by the end.

Monday 23rd September, at the back of the church, the History Society welcome back Professor John Prag, from Manchester University. He'll give a talk on Facial Reconstruction, which has become a valuable tool in archaeology.
