Annual Memorial Service

for 1 hour
St James
St James, Hoylake Road / Laird Street Junction Birkenhead Wirral, CH41 8JN, United Kingdom
Is there someone you're thinking of who is no longer with us? Autumn is often a time when we remember them, and at St James Parish Church we're holding our Annual Memorial Service at 3pm on Sunday (27th October). All are welcome, and there will be the opportunity to add names to the list of those we read out on arrival. No need to book in advance. Our Service lasts around 40 minutes. Do come along if you'd like to. Thank you.
Please note: this annual Service is now at St James, not St St. Bede's. Thank you.

St Bede

Welcome to St Bede's.  Our Community Centre and Chapel have been at the heart of Claughton VIllage on the Wirral for many years, and we continue to serve our community today as part of the Church of England Parish of St James with St Bede.  You'll find us on Upton Road, Claughton.

Our Community Centre is available for booking during weekdays and on Saturdays, and we hold a weekly Service of Holy Communion at 9.30am on Tuesday mornings.  Our Parent and Toddler Group, Bumblebede's, meets on Friday mornings in Term time, and we host uniformed groups for children and young people of all ages on week nights (Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, Beavers, Cubs and Scouts).  St Bede's Chapel is Licensed for Weddings, and with our large Community Centre and catering-sized kitchen, can make the ideal venue for that special celebration.

Please see the Safeguarding item on this Home page for more information in this area.

To find out more, please check out the details on this website, or give our Vicar, Revd Keith Addenbrooke, a call on 0151-652-1016. We look forwards to hearing from you.  Thank you.
