Welcome to the website of St Augustine’s – the Church of England in Kirkby-in-Cleveland and Great Broughton.  The inhabitants of our two villages have professed their Christian faith, and have worshipped on this site, for over a thousand years and we continue this wonderful tradition.

We are part of a four-church benefice, which includes the Parishes of Ingleby Greenhow, Kildale and Chop Gate, in the Diocese of York.

You will find information on the team, on the services in our church and on our support for all in the community at the key points in their lives, by scrolling through the following pages.  The calendar of services and the notice pages, which are regularly up-dated, are a good first point of reference.

The service on Sunday 23rd February is at 10 am at St Andrew’s, Ingleby Greenhow. This is the United Benefice service for February, and the speaker is David Local.

The readings for the second Sunday before Lent are: Genesis 2:4b – 9, 15 – end; Psalm 65; Revelation 4; Luke 8:22 – 25.

Today’s Gospel reading tells of Jesus calming the storm. The passage implies that Jesus is God, as God calms the storm in Psalm 107:23 – 30. Jesus can come into our lives at crises, such as the storm on the lake, but he can also come at quieter times. The disciples here had to call on Jesus to save them, however. We too need to call upon the Lord to save us. In all cases we still have the question of the disciples to ask and try to answer: ‘who is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?’ In crisis or quiet, who is Jesus for us?
