Welcome to St Philip's Church, Osmondthorpe, East Leeds
Osmondthorpe Lane Osmondthorpe Leeds, LS9 9EF, United Kingdom

"God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8). Join us for a service in two parts. The first is half an hour of silence, as we recall Jesus final hour on the cross. We will hear his final words. Then from 2.30pm a service of readings, prayer and silence, ending at 3pm. We gather on Good Friday to remember the day on which Christ died for us, we gaze, as it were, with horror on the place of Jesus' sacrifice.

Welcome to St Philip's Church, Osmondthorpe, East Leeds

Welcome to St Philip's!

We'd love you to join our church!

Why not come along in 2024 to find God, find friends, and find yourself!

God is doing a new thing in east Leeds. After receiving a new vicar, Rolf, and a small planting team from St Matts, Burley in May 2022, we continue to seek a fresh vision for the church. In January 2023 we became a separate parish of our own. We have seen exciting growth: our worshipping community is growing, our journey of discipleship is deepening, and our service to the local community expands. During 2023 we set up a Toddler Group, a community cafe, and are happy to host a Foodbank.

Into 204 we're excited to see what God is doing: we want to seek Jesus in worship and service.

As a community of Christians, we are committed to three priorities: worship - making Sundays unmissable with Jesus at the centre, refreshing our rhythms of anglican worship; evangelism - seeking to offer a confident invitation to church and to following Jesus, while increasing our profile and service across the community; and children and young people - serving those in our church, in our schools, and in our community. 

During 2024 you are invited to come and see what God is doing in LS9!
