Church services at The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, Handsworth, Sheffield

St Mary the Virgin S13 9BZ

The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin is dedicated to Our Lord's mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary or to use the old English title, Our Lady, St Mary the Virgin.

Taking Mary as our example of following Jesus we seek to listen to God and discern where the Holy Spirit is leading us and to do so in faith, trust and love.

We invite you to walk with us on this journey.

     Prayer for 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time:

Almighty God,
whose Son revealed in signs and miracles
the wonder of your saving presence:
renew your people with your heavenly grace,
and in all our weakness
sustain us by your mighty power;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

Our Anglican Tradition

St Mary's is of the Anglo-Catholic tradition in the Church of England.

At the request of the Parochial Church Council and Incumbent the Bishop of Sheffield has placed us under the pastoral and sacramental care of Martyn, Bishop of Beverley, the Provincial Episcopal Visitor.

Our Mission Statement

The presence of Jesus among us inspires us.
Come.
Offering friendship, acceptance, support and faith.
Come.
Seeking to improve, through use of resources, the quality of community life.
Come.
