Welcome
Welcome to All Saints’ Church, the parish church of Marple. A historic church which has served the local community for many generations, All Saints’ today is a lively, growing church with a contemporary feel, made up of people across the generations.
|
Our focus is on helping people of all ages to encounter God, to grow in a relationship with Him and to be equipped to serve him in every area of our lives. Long established Christians, those who are very new to the Christian faith and those who are still exploring matters of faith all find a home with us. We hope that you will feel equally at home at All Saints’. |

Our main Sunday services feature contemporary worship, Biblical teaching and the opportunity to engage with God. A full range of children’s activities operates every Sunday morning with groups for each age group from the tiniest babies to younger teenagers. Groups for older teens meet after the Sunday evening service and during the week.
The heart of the church is a network of cell groups which meet weekly in the homes of church members. It is sometimes hard to get to know people well in a church of several hundred people; joining a cell group enables us to build friendships with others and makes it easier to feel that we belong in the church. Cells provide a place where we can find support and encouragement as we seek to live for God day by day, and as we join with others in seeking to help our friends to find faith in Christ.

We regularly run Alpha courses for those who want to explore the Christian faith for the first time or who want to find answers to life’s ultimate questions. Many people have found this a great way in to the Christian faith and into the life of the church. Whatever your age or background, and wherever you find yourself on your own spiritual journey, we hope that you will feel welcome at All Saints’, and will be glad to join with us in continuing to serve this community for the sake of Christ. If you want to know more about the life of the church or would like to speak to one of our staff members, then please telephone or email the Church Office. |
We look forward to getting to know you.
