Holy Trinity is a thriving and welcoming Parish Church in the inclusive and liberal
modern catholic tradition. We are always seeking to be open to God and to grow in
our personal faith and as a church community: so we are on a journey! And that journey
began a very long time ago; the current church building has existed since 1150 and
has an active membership today of approaching 200. We are part of the Church of England
within the worldwide Anglican Communion under the Diocese of Salisbury.
A brief
history of the church by Anne Willis gives interesting insights into the place of
the church in the community.
Locally we are part of the Bradford Group Ministry and members of the Bradford Area
Churches Together. We also hold services in the Saxon Church of St Laurence, adjacent
to Holy Trinity, and in
St Mary, Tory, a former pilgrim chapel on the hill (tor) to
the north-west of the church.
The present parish of Holy Trinity will, in 2013, be combined with the benefice of Westwood and Wingfield and the Revd Joanna Abecassis is the Rector Designate of the new benefice. The Pastoral scheme for this unification can be read here.
Mothers' Union is open to all confirmed members of the Church of England who support family life, and it meets on the third Thursday of each month in the evening at Cedar Court in Berryfield Road.
Our local comprehensive school, St Laurence, is a Christian foundation to which we nominate two governors.
The Friends of Holy Trinity is a social and support group – a registered charity – which is for anyone in the community who is interested in supporting our heritage at Holy Trinity.
