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 Trinity Sunday; it is the start of the longest season in the church calendar and runs through to the beginning of Advent.   There will a Service of Holy Communion at 9.30 a.m. and we hope that you can join us.

In the Gospel reading, St Matthew records Jesus, after His resurrection, meeting with His disciples on a mountain in Galilee.   They worshipped Him, even though some doubted that it really was Jesus, but He approached them and reassured them, saying that God had given Him authority in heaven and on earth.  He directed them to go out and preach the gospel to all people and to baptise them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.   They should teach all the people to obey God’s commandments and He reassured them that He would be with them always, even unto the end of the world.   Believers in the Christian faith know that, at this moment, the Christian Church was created and has flourished since then.   They also know, if they follow God’s commandments, and try to live a decent and honourable life, that through the love of God, and of His Son Jesus, they may achieve salvation and eternal life.

The Bible readings are – Isaiah 40: verses 12 to 17 and 27 to the end, 2 Corinthians 13: verses 11 to the end and Matthew 28: verse 16 to the end.   The appointed psalm is 8 – O Lord our Governor, how excellent is thy name in all the world – the psalmist praises God for his greatness.

On Monday, we celebrate the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary and, on Thursday, we celebrate Corpus Christi, the Institution of the Holy Communion.

Also, on Thursday, there will be a Service of Holy Communion at 10 a.m.
