St Stephen on the Cliffs

St Stephen on the Cliffs St Stephens is an inclusive church in the Anglo-Catholic tradition where you are welcome

St Stephen on the Cliffs is an Anglo-Catholic church, maintaining traditional Catholic liturgy, preaching and teaching as the Church of England has received it. St Stephen’s is home to a church family who come together throughout the week to worship God and serve Him in our local community. Our church family stretches beyond the boundaries of our parish in North Shore, Blackpool. A number of us tr

avel from other parts of Blackpool and the Fylde to be part of our worship, outreach and social life. We welcome everyone, irrespective of faith or belief, as one of God’s children and invite all who are full members of other Christian denominations to receive communion at Mass.

It was great to welcome Fr Craig to Deacon and Preach at the 10.30am this morning and we look forward to welcoming him back in a couple of weeks.

This afternoon, while enjoying a well earned pint of b**r in Layton after the morning masses and baptism and before the evening services, I noticed this weathervane on top of a building, which is a smaller copy of Old Father Time in Lords Cricket Ground in London, interestingly placed in Lords exactly one hundred years ago. Maybe this used to be a cricket pitch?

Anyhow, masses as usual this week and a busy week for us all. Have a beautiful week and thank God for His goodness.

A delight this evening to be at Holy Cross Blackpool with some of our parishioners joining a full house of parishioners and friends to wish Fr Michael a joyful end of parish ministry and for him and Meg to have a happy retirement together. Ad Multos Annos!

It was great to welcome Warbreck Councillors - Danny and Michele Scott to look at our large hall which has been transformed with Ward Funding, enabling us to continue our expansion of community services and space in this densely packed ward with little other space for local people to use. Thank you to them for their support for the community and our site.
