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, 21st June, 2026, is Holy Communion at 9:30 a.m. at St Augustine’s.

The readings for the Third Sunday after Trinity are: Jeremiah 20:7-13, Psalm 69 8-20; Romans 6: 1b-11, Matthew 10:24-39.

In today’s Gospel passage, Jesus is preparing his disciples for their mission to spread the good news of salvation around the world. The thrust is that Jesus will be with them in this endeavour, no matter how hostile the world might be to them and to their message. The disciples, and, by extension, we, are hugely important to God. He knows and cares for us, and for everyone else. Therefore, whatever we might think the cost is, we are called to acknowledge Jesus and God before others. This can be divisive, of course, as the world usually does not want to hear the good news. But those who do acknowledge Jesus before others will be acknowledged as his by Jesus to the Father. This could be dangerous, and still is in some parts of the world, but we know that Jesus is with us, and by doing so we will find life.
