We are 7 church communities within the Deanery of Penrith in the Diocese of Carlisle. We have recently formed an ecumenical Mission Community with our neighbours in the Greystoke with Penruddock and Mungrisdale Benefice & congregations from local Methodist chapels. The Blencathra Mission Community will be looking at ways of supporting each other as we strive to love God, love our neighbours and make disciples for Jesus.
