The Parochial Church Council Report is a wonderful way to read and learn about the life of Christ Church Aughton and a testimony to God’s grace, as we have so much to celebrate. To view the 2023 report, click here.

Process to appoint new vicar: Following Rev’d Sarah O’Donoghue’s recent move to the Diocese of Blackburn, we recently conducted two surveys about the qualities of a new Vicar. Thank you to those who completed these surveys. The results are included in a Parish Profile which will be used to advertise the vacant vicar position.  You can view a copy of the Parish Profile, here. 

Electoral Roll Enrolment in 2025: To ensure we have an accurate list of church members at Christ Church Aughton, we are creating a new Electoral Roll in 2025 to replace the current one. 

To ensure the new Roll is adequately displayed before the Annual Parochial Church Meeting on Sunday, April 27, 2025, please print, complete and sign an Enrolment Form before March 23, 2025 https://christchurchaughton.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Application-for-Enrolment-Electoral-Roll.pdf

Note: Printed copies of the Enrolment Form, as well as The Church of England’s “Notice of preparation of the New Roll” will be at the back of church starting on February 16. If you’d like to view an online version of the Notice, it can be viewed here.

The Enrolment Form (which includes eligibility criteria on the reverse side) does not request your date of birth but it would be really useful if you could include the decade of your birth as it provides the church with a useful indicator of the age distribution of the congregation. 

Completed forms should be handed to a warden or sides person on Sundays, or dropped off at at the office in the Ministry Centre through the week. 

Following receipt of all completed forms, the names of all enrolled members will be displayed at the back of church between April 6 and 27, during which time any necessary alterations can be made. Please note that the published roll will NOT include your address to ensure your privacy.

Enrolled church members will be eligible to vote at the next Annual Parochial Church Meeting on April 27, 2025.

Our Bible Motto for 2025: Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3: 22-23
