We would like to invite you to join us at our Church Services and other events. We have annual, monthly and weekly events at Church and in St Barnabas' Community Centre. Please see below for details.

Parish Eucharist

Occurring
Every First, Second, Third, Fourth Sunday at for 1 hour
Venue
St Barnabas' Church, Burnmoor
Address
Chester Road, A183 Bournmoor Durham, DH4 6EU, United Kingdom

Our Priest in Charge, Revd. Catherine, and the congregation look forward to welcoming you to our regular Church Service.

At a celebration of the Eucharist, the community gathers, asks God’s forgiveness for its sins, listens to readings from the Bible including a reading from one of the Gospels. A sermon is preached and the community prays together. Bread and wine are brought to the the altar, the priest prays the Eucharistic Prayer, and everyone says the Lord’s Prayer together. The community then receives the consecrated bread and wine. At the end of the service, the community is sent out into the world as a ‘living sacrifice’ to live and work to God’s praise and glory.

We follow the service with light refreshments in St. Barnabas' Community Centre.
