Christ the King

Stocksbank Road Battyeford Mirfield
(01924) 493303
http://www.christ-the-king.co.uk

Welcome to the Church of England parish of Christ the King, Battyeford - on the Brighouse side of Mirfield, West Yorkshire
We serve, within some rather quaintly drawn parish boundaries, just short of half the population of Mirfield, We try - as you would expect of any church – to follow, preach and encourage that Godly path of life which was lived and described Jesus Christ. We believe in open, community-based approaches to being a church of the people, run by the people, in existence for the people. If you live here (and even if you don't) we hope you feel you could ask us if you feel we could be useful to you.

St John the Evangelist

Hopton Hall Lane Mirfield

http://www.mirfieldteamparish.org.uk

On April 11th 2007 St. Mary's Mirfield, St. Paul's Eastthorpe, and St. John's Upper Hopton became a single benefice to form the Mirfield Team Parish
St John's is a small, friendly, village church with a congregation ranging from the active sunday school children, couples getting married to those enjoying retirement. Many of the congregation come from outside the village in order to take part in worship and fellowship at St John's.

The church itself is a beautiful serene building in which it is easy to find peace and tranquility. The church is often decorated with flowers and the church yard looks stunning with daffodils in spring.

If you are new to the area, you can be sure of a warm welcome at St John's. Please come and introduce yourself to the vicar, churchwarden or sidesperson so we can make you feel at home.

The church serves a largely residential parish of just under 9,000 people. The congregation is lively and welcoming and ready to meet the challenges placed upon the Church in the 21st century. We want to be rooted in the faith that has sustained people through the centuries, ready to present the good news of Jesus to the people of today, and open to the future to which God calls us.
