Sean Robertshaw,
Vicar of Christ Church and Team Rector for the Holme Valley

welcome heading

The Parish Church of New Mill, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire stands proudly on a hill side overlooking the village. A member of the Upper Holme Valley Team Ministry within the missionary Diocese of Wakefield , it is a lively church, with a thriving Junior Church, Choir and bellringing group.

There are no special qualifications required to be a member of Christ Church - its doors are open to all. Being part of Christ Church is like being part of a large family.

The great thing about Christ Church is its ability to cater for both traditional and modern styles of worship by following a varied pattern of worship. We try to accomodate all tastes and ages, growing together in faith. Check out our Services Page for more details. And of course as a church family we also meet together at great social events throughout the year.
