Welcome to the 'Church near you' page of the Church of St Paul the Apostle, Brierley. We are part of the Priory Benefice: one of the group of Church of England parishes serving the communities of Grimethorpe, Brierley, Ryhill, South Kirkby, Havercroft, Cold Hiendly and Wintersett.

Located on the borders of South and West Yorkshire within the diocese of Leeds we are three congregations witnessing to Jesus Christ in an area undergoing exciting regeneration and development. In the midst of change we believe in the constancy of Jesus Christ as a sure foundation and shepherd. We seek to witness to his presence in the sacramental life of the Church, and in the love and service of others. We are parishes of the Society of St Wilfrid & St Hilda; Anglican Christians worshipping in the beauty of our Catholic heritage.

"The parish of Grimethorpe w Brierley is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults.
