Fr Christopher was pleased to be at St Stephen's HouseHouse yesterday as the former home of the Cowley Fathers hosted the 160th anniversary of the foundation of the Society of St John the Evangelist, whose successor charThe Fellowship of St John John, is a great supporter of our work with children and families. The charity works hard not only to fund projects like ours throughout the UK and the world, but also maintains something of the charism of the Cowley Fathers in its fostering of fellowship, for which we are also grateful. Please pray for the continued work of the #horburyr#horburybridger#wakefieldfield ... See MoreSee Less

Welcome to the Parish of St Peter and St Leonard, Horbury, with St John, Horbury Bridge. We are a vibrant and living Christian community, part of the newly-formed Church of England Diocese of Leeds.

At the heart of our parish is the worship of God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We express this in our daily life, which revolves around the recitation of the Daily Office (Morning and Evening Prayer) and the celebration of the Mass (Eucharist or Holy Communion). Our main Sunday services are at 9am at St John’s and 10.30am at St Peter’s, and we would love to see you there!

We seek to serve the people of Horbury with Horbury Bridge by welcoming children and adults into the Christian faith by baptism, blessing marriages, nurturing children in the faith, caring for those in particular need through our various groups and ministries, and burying the dead in the sure and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life.

We do this because of our belief that Jesus Christ is ‘The Way, the Truth and the Life’, and that our lives are best lived in a relationship with him through his church. Once you’ve had a look through these pages, why not drop in to one of our services or come to one of our activities or events. We look forward to getting to know you!
