Similar to last year, primarily due to the continued high energy prices and in order to reduce heating costs, there will NOT be a service in every church each Sunday during January, February and March 2024:

Everyone is encouraged to join together at one of the other churches if there is not a service at the one you would usually attend. Let’s stick together (and worship together) during these winter months and keep warm.

Services will be as follows during MARCH:

Sun 3rd – St James’ Meltham Mills (Family Sunday Service) 9:30am and St Mary’s Wilshaw (HC) 11:15am

Sun 10th St Bartholomew’s’ Meltham (HC) 9:30am and St Mary’s Wilshaw (SoW) 11:15am

Sun 17th St James’ Meltham Mills (HC) 9:30am and St Mary’s Wilshaw (SoW) 11:15am

Sun 24th PALM SUNDAY Joint Parish Communion and lunch 10:30am – St Bartholomew’s Meltham

Please Note:
– The first Sunday of the month (9:30am) will be a Family Sunday service where people of ALL ages can join in the fun.
– The fourth Sunday of the Month will be a Parish Communion Service. All are welcome to share a light lunch together after the service.
– There will be no services taking place at Helme Church due to the lack of heating.
– The mid-week Wednesday service of Holy Communion at St Bartholomew’s will continue as normal each week at 10:30am.
– Toddler Church at St Bartholomew’s will continue as normal on Tuesday mornings each week 9am to 11am (term time only).
