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.
Tomorrow is the Second Sunday before Lent; there will be not be a Service at St Augustine’s, instead we will join the congregation at Ingleby Greenhow for a Service of Holy Communion at 9.30am. We hope that you will be able to join us.
In the Gospel reading, St Matthew records Jesus, having ascended a mountain with his disciples, saying to them that they should not be concerned that they had few possessions, because God gave them life and would provide for them. He said that the birds did not worry because God provided for them, as He did for the beauty of the flowers of the field. Neither should the people worry, because God would always provide for them. He explained to the disciples that they should trust and believe in the righteousness of God, who loved all people. These words, from the sermon on the mount, which is recorded in Chapters 5 and 6 of St Matthew’s Gospel, are fundamental to the belief, of all those who follow the Christian faith, in the greatness and good ness of God.
The Bible readings are – Genesis 1: verse 1 to 2: verse3, Romans 8: verses 18 to 25 and Matthew 6: verse 25 to the end. The appointed psalm is 136 – O give thanks unto the Lord, for his mercy endureth for ever – the psalmist gives thanks to God for the everlasting mercy that He shows to all people.
