WELCOME
We are a worshipping community across three churches who want to get to know and share Christ's love and joy in Almondbury and Farnley Tyas.
Each of our congregations has a differing style of worship, and much is going on. There is something for everyone in our inclusive parish.
We welcome everyone at all stages of faith, including 'not sure'. We warmly invite you to join us!

OUR SERVICES
We offer a variety of worship within the parish. The Eucharist, or Holy Communion, is at the heart of our worship and is celebrated in the parish each week.
Evensong, a centuries-old service which brings together words and music, takes place at All Hallows' or St Lucius' on the first Sunday of the month at 6.30pm. It offers a chance to pause and reflect away from the noise and distractions of daily life.
Join us in praying for our local community and our world in Morning Prayer from Monday to Friday.
