Welcome to All Saints Church Newton Hall
Whether you are just passing through for the weekend, looking for your new spiritual home, or already a part of our church community, we hope and pray this website provides all of the information you need to find out what’s going on. If not, we would love to hear from you. We look forward to welcoming you at one of our various services or other events.
All Saints is a local ecumenical partnership between the Anglican and Methodist churches (see the bottom of this page for links to our parent organisations). What binds us together is a love for All Saints, a dependence on God and the desire to help show His great love to all those we meet and have contact with.
This influence of multi-denominations, reflects throughout the life of the church offering a wide mix in styles of worship and activities. Praising, Loving and Sharing God’s love in and around Newton Hall, we aim to provide a diverse worship style which meets the spiritual needs of our community of all ages.
As a congregation, we have close links with a number of the local schools and other organisations in particular Blue Coat Church of England Aided Junior School.
Sunday Services
At All Saints we aim to provide a variety of worship so that everyone can find something that helps them worship and connect with God. At its heart is our desire to worship and give praise to God who loves us, to deepen our spirituality and give space for reflection and prayer. All Saints is an inclusive church and we hope everyone will find a warm welcome. The church is easily accessible and children are always welcome, there is lots of space and activities for them.
All Saints is an Ecumenical church, a combined congregation of Anglican and Methodists meeting together along with Christians from other denominational backgrounds. Our worship therefore reflects the traditions of both our parent denominations as well as influence from other Christian denominations form around the world. Our music also has a variety of influences, and we love to sing, accompanied by our organists and music band.
Our main Sunday services start at 10.45am and last about an hour.
