About Us

Situated about four miles north of the City of York, our two parishes form a United Benefice within the Diocese of York. 

We are following the Diocesan vision of 'Living Christ's Story'

Inspired by the love of God we see in Jesus we try to become more like him through prayer and worship, learning more about the Christian Faith, involvement in our local community and treasuring our world and environment.

We enjoy worshipping together and look forward to welcoming you.

Wishing you every blessing.

The Revd Kathryn Jackson, Rector.
