Joint Confirmation service for all Rural Daneside Churches

for 1 hour
Christ Church, Eaton, near Congleton
Macclesfield Road, Eaton Congleton, CW12 2NH, United Kingdom

Confirmation is a special church service in which a person confirms the promises that were made when they were baptised.
If you were baptised at a christening when you were a child, your parents and godparents made these promises on your behalf. As a young person or adult, you may be ready to affirm these promises for yourself and commit your life to following Jesus Christ. At a confirmation service, you make these promises for yourself. Your friends and family as well as the local Christian community will be there to promise to support and pray for you.
The local bishop will lay their hands on your head and ask God’s Holy Spirit to give you the strength and commitment to live God’s way for the rest of your life.
We will have Bishop Mark of Chester with us on this joyous day.
Refreshments will be served in the Parish Hall after the service.

Christ Church, Eaton, near Congleton

Christ Church is our parish church and is located in the award winning village of Eaton on the A536 between Congleton and Macclesfield. This is a lively and vibrant village with a strong community spirit of which the church is a central part. 

We were very sorry to say goodbye recently to our vicar, Revd Ian Arch, who has moved on to a new life in Wales with his family. The Rural Daneside Churches are now in the process of finding and appointing a new vicar and, in the meantime, the work of the church continues.

For any enquiries, please use the "Get in Touch" page.   

The church at Hulme Walfield is known as the daughter church. Information about St Michael's Church, Hulme Walfield can be found here. 

You can see details of the services under services and events. Everyone is always welcome at our services.
