St Denys

St Denys has welcomed people for over 800 years. Our regular 10.00am Sunday morning service offers a warm welcome to all; the service on the first Sunday of every month (apart from January and August) is also BSL interpreted for our deaf community.  We  serve the community locally and beyond through our services, and baptisms, weddings and funerals, as well as social activities and offering support to people in need. St Denys is one of the York City Centre Churches, with the Churches of All Saints Pavement, St Helen, St Martin and St Olave.
