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 Tenth Sunday after Trinity. There will not be a Service at St Augustine’s; instead, we will join the congregation at Ingleby Greenhow for a Service of Holy Communion at 10 a.m. We hope that you can join us.

In the Gospel reading, St Matthew records Jesus on the lake shore, telling the disciples to get into the boat and cross to the other side. After they left, Jesus went up into the mountain to pray during the evening, in solitude. As the boat crossed the lake, the wind strengthened and the waves became steep, causing the boat to be tossed around. Early in the morning, Jesus went out the boat, walking on the water. When the disciples saw Him, they were troubled, thinking that they were seeing a spirit, and cried out in fear. Jesus heard them and said to them, “It is I, do not be afraid”. Peter replied, saying, “Lord, if it is you, tell me to come to you.” Jesus called him and he set out across the water, but became afraid of the wind and began to sink. Jesus reached out to him and caught him, saying to him that if he believed in Him, he would not sink. The disciples then knew that Jesus really was the Son of God, and worshipped Him. Followers of the Christian faith down the ages to the present day know that, when they face difficulties, belief in the power and love of God would sustain them.

The Bible readings are – 1 Kings 19: verses 9 to 18, Romans 10: verses 5 to 15 and Matthew 14: verses 22 to 33. The appointed psalm is 85: verses 8 to 13 – Lord, thou art become gracious unto thy land – the psalmist praises God for His kindness to all who believe in Him.

On Wednesday, there will be a Summer Workshop for children and their carers, from 1.30 p.m. to 3 p.m, led by Sarah Weyell.

On Thursday there will be a Service of Holy Communion at 10 a.m.

On Saturday we give thanks for the Blessed Virgin Mary.
