Welcome

The Anglican Parish Church of St Aidan is part of the Deanery of Kirkburton, in the Huddersfield Episcopal Area (The Rt Revd Dr Jonathan Gibbs, Bishop of Huddersfield), in the Anglican Diocese of Leeds /formerly West Yorkshire and the Dales/ (The Rt Revd Nick Baines, Bishop of Leeds). The Church is located close to the centre of Skelmanthorpe We are only a small middle-of-the-road village Church. There's nothing grand or special about us, but we would love to see you if you would like to visit us - our Mass is moderate High Church, our Altars are eastward facing. Details of our sevices are given within the following chapters. No matter what your Faith, or beliefs, all are welcome to join in or observe with no obligation. Mothers with babies are welcome to feed their babies in our facilities. The Parish of St Aidan is pleased to have links with Skelmanthorpe Methodist Church on Pilling Lane, thus we are part of CTiSk (Churches Together in Skelmanthorpe). Our Church also welcomes friendly dogs if they are under control. "We are delighted to proclaim that God loves you, no matter who you are or what you have done. God's love for you and every creature is utter, total and never, never ceases".
