Mothering Sunday Service 2025: A Special Day of Celebration and Blessing

This year's Mothering Sunday Service at Christ Church was a truly special and heartfelt celebration. Over 150 candles were lit during the service as part of our "Lighting Christ Church with Love" tradition, honouring mothers and all those who have acted as mother figures in our lives. These candles represented the love, care, and nurturing we have received from those who have supported us, and the sight of the church illuminated with so many flickering lights was a beautiful symbol of the community’s shared gratitude.

The Church Clock at Christ Church is Ticking Once Again!

We are delighted to announce that the much-loved clock on our church tower is once again fully operational. After nearly 60 years of service, the motor driving the clock mechanism on all four faces of the tower failed in late October 2024. Thanks to the generosity of our community, a successful fundraising campaign, and the expertise of Lancashire Clockmakers, the clock is now back to keeping perfect time.
