St James & Emmanuel

St James & Emmanuel Churches have been the heart of the south Manchester suburb of Didsbury for over 775 years.  We are a fully inclusive and LGBTQI+ welcoming evangelical church with four vibrant congregations catering for wide range of church traditions.  We are the lead partner in the St James & Emmanuel Academy Trust of four primary schools.  St James, with a stunningly beautiful building and churchyard, is popular venue for weddings.  While Emmanuel, with its flexible building in the heart of Didsbury is a regular host for concerts, plays and other important civic and pastoral services.  Emmanuel is also host to Home Community Cafe.  We welcome you on a vibrant journey of Belonging - Believing - Becoming.  You can find out more about our vision HERE.
