Introduction
Who we are
St Mary’s and St Nicholas’ serve the town of Halewood within the borough of Knowsley, on the edge of the city of Liverpool.
The two churches seek together to serve the whole parish,and do so as an ecumenical partnership of Anglican (Church of England) and Methodist traditions. Both churches provide worship and ministry reflecting the two traditions.
The parish relates to the structures of both churches, and is part of the Anglican Deanery of South Liverpool and the Diocese of Liverpool; and of the Methodist South Liverpool Circuit and District of Liverpool.
Sunday Services
The main morning service is usually held at 10:30AM at St Mary's and at 11:00AM at St Nicholas'. St Nicholas' now offers a 9:00AM Communion on each Sunday of the month. The two churches usually meet together for a United Service when there is a fifth Sunday in the month, and on other occasions. Our usual monthly pattern can be found here.
We usually have an evening service at 6:30pm. The venue and style of evening worship vary.
Please see our weekly Notices for details.
Children and Young People
We are proud holders of the Diocese of Liverpool's "Child Friendly Church" Award. This Award, was first presented to us three years ago following an inspection of the work we do with children and young people.
During the main morning service both churches offer crèche facilities for pre-school age children. There are also special activities for school-age children at Sunday School or Junior Church (except when the service is an all-age worship service). All those who work with children and young people in the parish are CRB verified and trained in child protection.
During the week, the parish offers clubs and activities for children and young people of all ages. You can find out more about our work with children and young people here. See our weekly Notices for up-to-date information.

Baptisms, Weddings and Funerals
For enquiries about Baptisms ('christenings') or Weddings at either church, please contact the Parish Office or see the notes for each church on their respective pages.
The Church of England has a great web site to help you plan a Church wedding - it's at YourChurchWedding.Org.
Funerals are usually arranged with us through a Funeral Director.
Please note that our ecclesiastical parish boundaries are not identical to the civic boundaries - for example, some Halewood postal addresses are in the parish of St Hilda's, Hunts Cross. You can see a map of our parish here. If in doubt, please contact us!
