1 THE CHURCHES OF HOLY TRINITY, ST PAUL S AND ST JOHN S OUR Parish BROCHURE The P.C.C.s and Congregations welcome you to the Parish Brochure of The Emmanuel Team. We are pleased you want to know more about us and hope the information we have given about our Team will inspire you to join us. We also invite you to look at our website: OUR MISSION AT THE EMMANUEL TEAM IS: OFFERING LOVE AND SERVICE TO OUR COMMUNITIES IN CHRIST S NAME
2 Whilst we may be three separate buildings we are united in our commitment to work together as a team. Our mission statement, offering love and service to our communities in Christ s name is something that we truly believe in and work hard to achieve despite our busy lives. We thought as we are three different churches, it would be useful to provide a brief insight into each one and we hope you will come and see our churches for yourself and celebrate a service with us.
3 Holy Trinity Church Church Lane, South Crosland, Huddersfield, HD4 7DB Our beautiful church offers a peaceful place for reflection, worship, friendship, and social occasions. We are a congregation of all ages who share our worship in both formal and less formal styles. The foundation stone of Holy Trinity Church was laid in It was one of the Waterloo Churches built at that time from Government grants to mark the successful conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars. Holy Trinity Church was consecrated in The stained-glass East Window, telling the story of the Good Samaritan, was installed in Holy Trinity Church boasts a magnificent three-manual pipe organ. It was built in 1864 by Kirkland and Jardine of Manchester. Samuel Sebastian Wesley (14 August April 1876), English organist and composer, claimed that this organ was one of the finest organs he had ever heard in a country church. The organ is certified by the Institute of Organ Studies as a grade 2 listing of being an organ of historic and national interest.
4 At Holy Trinity Church, we have a small but very hardworking group who help to maintain the graveyard. Children were involved in the planting of poppy seeds in remembrance of those who died in WW1. We have a dedicated pastoral care group who help to support those of the parish who are in need; one member of the team is able to minister the chalice on request. Whilst the hamlet of South Crosland is predominantly a farming community, the village of Netherton boasts an awardwinning farm shop. There is also a selection of fast food outlets, hairdressers, dentist, optometrist, doctor's surgery, convenience stores, newsagent, bakery, florist and funeral director. Holy Trinity Church has excellent links with the Church of England (Aided) School in the village through regular assemblies conducted by the Clergy and the serving of several PCC members on the Governing Body. As part of the Emmanuel Team we run Home groups for fellowship a nd study along with Lent, Advent, and Emmaus Christian basics courses. Team services are held once a month and on occasion include the local Methodist Church.
5 Crafty Kids' is an art based activity club for young children which takes place about once a month on a Saturday. This was started about 6 years ago, in response to a questionnaire sent out to parents about what they would like the church to provide for their children. Although numbers of children vary from about 4 to 8, we have formed close partnerships with both the adults and the children over the years. We have two thriving book clubs for adults: these meet about once a month for discussions about a book read and selected by the group, plus coffee and biscuits. Bookworms come from each of the local churches and much further afield! Also for adults we organise regular monthly quizzes at South Crosland on Saturday evenings from September to March: these are very well attended and have provided a steady contribution to church funds. Again, 'quizzers' come from all 3 churches plus the wider community of Huddersfield and the Holme Valley.
6 St Paul s Church St. Paul's Church, Armitage Bridge, Huddersfield, HD4 7PD Nestled in a curve of the River Holme, St. Paul s Church is the parish church for Armitage Bridge, Berry Brow and Taylor Hill. It is a grade II listed building consecrated in The church sits at the entrance to Armitage Bridge, around 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Huddersfield in the beautiful Holme Valley. The church is an attractive mixture of old and new having been reconstructed following a major fire in The traditional exterior now houses a more modern and versatile space for worship and other activities. Emmanuel Team meetings and courses are often held here. Our congregation also crosses the generations; young and old share in our worship, experiencing a blend of formal and informal styles. Within the life of the church there is opportunity for everyone to utilise their skills and talents and to enjoy social fellowship.
7 The village has a cricket club and pub; a ukulele supplier; a beauty salon and a physiotherapist. A company of architects has splendidly refurbished derelict buildings to create its own offices. A former textile mill of grand proportions is now a complex of office/industrial units. It was the mill s family owners that commissioned the building of the church for the benefit of its employees families. The 3-day Art & Craft Exhibition in June has been held annually for 31 years. Many visitors come to view (and possibly buy) the work of a variety of talented exhibitors.
8 Whatever their artistic tastes, visitors enjoy delicious home-made sandwiches and cakes, prompting a roaring trade. The acoustics at St Paul s Church make it an attractive venue for concerts and for the weekly rehearsals of local choral societies. The Associated Board of the Royal Society of Music also hires the church for 5/6 weeks in the year to hold its music examinations. Our historic ring of six bells, rung by our dedicated team can be heard regularly on Sunday morning and on special occasions. In contrast the church is often used for quiet days where reflection is possible within a calm and relaxing environment - an oasis providing some serenity in a hectic world. The large churchyard maintained by our gardening team contributes to the peaceful ambience. Many local people use the footbridge and the long tree -lined drive in preference to walking alongside the adjacent main road. If they are lucky they will see a kingfisher skimming the river s surface. As part of our ecumenical commitment, Café Church has been hosted with the nearby Methodist Church on a monthly basis. St Paul s Church offers a friendly welcome to visitors from near and far; and strives to provide a caring and comforting home for its regular churchgoers of all ages.
9 On the first Sunday of the month - after a prayer in church - the children go upstairs for Junior Church. This includes Bible stories, Godly Play, craft activities, prayer and discussions before returning to join the congregation for communion and a blessing. On other Sundays, activity bags (including colouring sheets, crayons and various books) are provided. On lay-led services an activity is provided - on a table - within the congregation. Following the Communion before Confirmation preparation, six of our children now receive communion. When the Team Service is at St Paul s Church the children worship in Junior Church upstairs which may include PowerPoint presentations. The children take an active part in Harvest, Christingle and Nativity Services. The leaders, children and their families have joined together for a variety of social events including family picnics and ten-pin bowling (also includes team members).
10 We are fortunate to have in our possession a range of wonderful Godly Play materials designed specifically to support the presentation of stories from the Bible. Godly Play at St Paul s Church provides our children with the opportunity to encounter and engage with Bible stories in a creative and imaginative way. In the safe, sacred space provided, their own spirituality and faith can grow. Godly Play has been an integral part of Junior Worship at St Paul s Church and has also been taken into local schools and the wider community. Adults - as well as children - have experienced it at Team and Lay Services, and at a Baptism. We use an adaptation of Godly Play s The Children s Liturgy for Christmas Eve at our Nativity and children provide the narration, characters, prayers and music.
11 St John s Church Jackroyd Lane, Newsome, Huddersfield, HD4 6JH We are a congregation of people worshipping at the heart of the village of Newsome. We are an older congregation with many talents and wisdom.
12 We enjoy working with the other churches in the team and enjoy a good relationship with the Methodist Church in the Newsome area. Every month in the lounge at the back of the church we hold a quiz afternoon and refreshments are served here after each service and we also host a monthly coffee morning. St John s Church was built in 1872, it is traditional but has benefited from some adaptations to provide much needed facilities and access. The church is situated at the heart of the community in the shadow of the iconic Victoria Tower which was erected to commemorate the 60 th anniversary of Queen Victoria. This has become a favourite tourist attraction.
13 Newsome village boasts a post office, two fish and chip shops, two hairdressers, a pharmacy, a bakery, a dentist, a doctors, two pubs and two charity shops, one of which is the Together Shop. The Together Shop is run by the Local Ecumenical Partnership (LEP) with the help of volunteers from the churches and community. Historically the LEP consists of St John s Church, St Paul s Church, and Newsome South Methodist Church. Further details can be found in our detailed Profile. There are four schools and a nursery none of which are attached to the Church of England. There is also a school for severely disabled children. However St John s Church has a presence at each one especially through the LEP, buddy reading friends and governors. There is a good community spirit in the village which was shown recently when the local mill burnt down. The church and community worked together to assist those evacuated from their homes. There is a Church Hall close to the church were the Rainbows, Guides and the pre-school nursery meet. We encourage bookings from the community and it is used for the church s monthly coffee morning. Uniformed groups are invited to attend special services at the church.
14 Not far from the village of Newsome is the Stirley Community Farm. Stirley Community Farm is an inspirational place in West Yorkshire, which is bringing back wildlife to farming, and working with loc al people to achieve healthy living and a healthy environment in this corner of Huddersfield. Newsome is also home to the Newsome Panthers ARLFC which is an amateur rugby league club. The club was founded with only two junior teams in 1995 and has since grown into one of the largest clubs in Yorkshire with teams for children of all ages. There is also a large community of students in the Newsome area, many of whom are living in the nearby accommodation.
15 Our three churches offer God's word and love to people of all ages so they may grow in faith and confidence in the midst of our challenging world. We embrace both formal and informal teaching and enjoy deepening our faith by exploring the bible. As individual churches, we offer a combination of lay-led and Eucharistic services. On the third Sunday of every month our three churches come together for a Team Service and three times a year we meet with other churches in the parish for a Unity Service. Most weeks, the Net Church meets at St Paul's Church Armitage Bridge on a Sunday at 4.30pm where everyone eats a simple meal together before the service, finishing at around 6.30pm. There is also a Net led service at St John s Church once a month. LOVING LIVING LEARNING The Emmanuel Team - Three churches, one congregation
