Community Parish Church | St George's Church Kendal

Latest on Beacon Team church services, June 2021

The churches of the Beacon Team are all currently open for public worship. The schedule of services has changed slightly from before lockdown in some cases, so please check with our Administrator on admin@beaconteam.org.uk for the latest information before setting out for a service if you can't check in with your local church or ministry leader (or visit the Beacon Team Facebook page). Please note that the Sunday service at St George's now starts at 9.30am and not 10am as previously.

Meanwhile, the Beacon Team is continuing with its full programme of worship on Zoom. The Beacon Team ‘Home Service’ service sheet to use at home is also published on this website week by week here, along with the weekly Notice Sheet.

Visit our Prayer and Worship pages for materials to support private prayer, worship and contemplation at this time including resources for families, for use during busy weekday lives and or on quiet Sundays. If you’d like to be kept updated week by week by email on opportunities to join in live worship, please email us.

At St George’s Church we aim to reach out to God in worship and to each other in fellowship. We hope you will find us a friendly and inclusive church and we would be delighted to meet you at any of our services or activities.

We are also part of an exciting new mission across Cumbria, in partnership with other denominations, called God for All. The aim of God for All is that by 2020 all the people of Cumbria, of all ages and backgrounds, will have had an opportunity to discover more of God and God’s purpose for their lives. You can read more about God for All and stories about local Christian people’s lives and faith by clicking here. We were also part of the launch of a brand new Mission Community on Advent Sunday in 2019 at St Oswald’s Church, Burneside. Exciting times!

Please take the time to read more about Worship & Services, Baptisms, Weddings & Funerals, Facilities for Hire, Activities, Prayer Station and our latest news.

You can also read more about our church and its history, plus meet some of the people who lead our church.

We'd be delighted to answer any of your questions. Feel free to contact us by email while the church office is closed according to COVID-19 restrictions.
