Welcome to the St. Andrew 's Church, Corbridge Website. We are to be found in ‘Hadrian's Wall Country' in the beautiful Tyne valley in undiscovered Northumberland. St. Andrew 's Church is part of this historic village and many visitors come here each year. |
However St. Andrew 's is also a church of the twenty first century with a vibrant ministry at the heart of this community. You will be able to access details of our services and events, as well as our historical story, on this website.
As a church for the community we pride ourselves in offering a variety of worship which includes Parish Communion, BCP Evensong and Informal Family Worship.
We are also very clear that there is a welcome for everyone here, no matter what their story, background, marital status, gender, nationality or sexual orientation. We are an inclusive church.
We have a variety of Christian experience and tradition represented in our congregations. This we value as, potentially, we are all enriched by the insights of others. If we were forced to label ourselves we would call ourselves ‘Liberal Catholic' – with probably more emphasis on the ‘liberal' than on the ‘catholic'!
People worship here who are at differing stages of their faith journeys. Some are coming to see what it's all about – watching and seeking; others have recently embraced faith and are keen to grow in discipleship; there are many who have been faithful worshippers for many many years: all are welcome to journey with us in whatever way they find appropriate and life-giving.
St. Andrew 's is open every day. Visitors and local people alike are encouraged to use it as a quiet space, literally, at the centre of the village. There is opportunity to light candles, place prayer requests on the Prayer Tree, to sit quietly in our Chapel of Remembrance or in The Lady Chapel; or just to come and ‘be'.
You are very welcome. I do hope you find St. Andrew 's a place of blessing and inspiration as you journey with God and towards God.
Vicar of Corbridge
