About Us

Welcome to All Saints Church!  

We are sure you will find us a warm and welcoming community people and look forward to getting to know you. From the youngest to the oldest, we want to be family to each other, to have fun together and discover the God who knows each of our names and wants to equip us to work for the good of our communities.  Our strap line is ‘Loving Jesus, loving our communities’ and we hope that comes over in all we do.

If you wouldn’t describe yourself as a Christian and are still putting the pieces together, then that’s great! It’s an exciting journey and we’d love to walk it with you.. For all of us we began being aware of God, often in the background of our lives and then gradually discovered he is the one who helps make sense of life. If you’d like someone to meet you so you can ask some questions and find out more, just email or phone the office who will put you in touch.

If you are already a Christian, you will find All Saints a great place to go deeper in your faith, to connect with others on the journey, and discover how you might be involved both in the church and in the community. We have a variety of mid-week life groups offering opportunities to get to know one another and be encouraged in faith are open to all. Whether you prefer a traditional style, or something much more informal and contemporary, we have services to suit you, great bible teaching and lots going on too for all ages and stages from children to youth, young adults and every stage thereafter.

We believe that every person has something to offer, and so you’ll find we aren’t the sort of church where the vicar does everything, we are very much a team. The Bible teaches us that God gives each of us gifts and talents and abilities to be used to benefit each other, and so there are lots of things to get involved with at All Saints much of which you’ll find under the what’s on menu. However if there is something you’d like to see us start, just get in touch.

All Saints is part of a number of networks which you might have heard of. We are part of New Wine, which is a family of churches partnering to benefit this nation. We are also part of the network of Churches Together Teesside,  who work together locally. We are a Church of England church in the Diocese of Durham and are a resource church, which means part of our purpose is to help bring life to churches which are struggling and to start new churches in new communities. To find out more about our vision click here to watch a video from our last annual meeting.

We hope that has given you a flavour of what All Saints is about. Do come along and check us out. We know for some people walking in the door of somewhere new is not easy so feel free to get in touch beforehand and we would be pleased to meet you at the door.

So, whoever you are, you are welcome. Come join the family! 

Matt & Rachel
