Good Friday service at Eaton Church

for 1 hour
Christ Church, Eaton, near Congleton
Macclesfield Road, Eaton Congleton, CW12 2NH, United Kingdom
On Good Friday we remember the day Jesus willingly suffered and died by crucifixion as the ultimate sacrifice for our sins.
Today's service will tell the story of the crucifixion and we will build an Easter garden together. The picture shows two of the gardens that were created a few years ago.
This year, there will be the one service for all Rural Daneside Churches.

St James & St Paul, Marton

Welcome to the parish church of St James and St Paul in Marton, near Macclesfield, in Cheshire.

We are part of the Church of England in the Diocese of Chester, serving the small (but perfectly formed) village of Marton, a few miles north of Congleton. Our church building is (we think) the oldest of its kind still in use in Europe, and we are rather fond of it.

It was founded in 1343, and much of what was built then is still here. We hope that both the building and the worshipping community will be here for another few centuries at least.

The Rural Daneside Churches are 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.

For details of our services, see the Services and events page.  

The parish of Marton: St James is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. For information, please click "Safeguarding".
