Late Spring & Summer
St George’s Day Toast
An interactive session for makers and thinkers to collaborate, connect, and spark new ideas.
Beating The Bounds
Come and join us as we walk the boundaries of our Parish, praying for those working and living within it, alongside our neighbouring Parishes too...
A Prayer Gate
Christians will often use a 'prayer tree' to hang prayers on, but here at St George's we decided to make use of our gates!
So if you'd like to tie a ribbon in memory of someone, or as a symbol of a prayer, do pop along from Thursday 14th May and add yours to the gate...
Prayer Labyrinth
For centuries, people have been mindfully walking Labyrinths, and we're delighted to have our own Prayer Labyrinth for everyone to use!
Pop over for a few minutes, or much longer - you can simply walk it, pray, reflection, think, hope or just be - and maybe a mixture of them all!
Even if you've never done one before, why not give it a go?
Ascension Service
Ascension Day Service – Join Us for This Special Moment in the Christian Year
You are warmly invited to join us for our Ascension Day service, one of the most important, although sometimes overlooked, festivals in the Christian calendar.
Celebrated 40 days after Easter, Ascension Day marks the moment when the risen Jesus returned to heaven in the presence of his disciples. It is a day that reminds us of hope, promise, and Christ’s continuing presence with the Church.
Ascension Day has been celebrated by Christians for centuries and offers a beautiful opportunity for reflection, prayer, and thanksgiving in the days between Easter and Pentecost.
Whether you come regularly or have never been to an Ascension service before, you will find a warm welcome and a thoughtful, uplifting service.
Come and mark this important moment in the Christian story here at St George’s.
Pentecost
Sunday 24th May is a special day for the Church – it’s called Pentecost, and it celebrates the moment when God sent His Holy Spirit to be with us.
It’s often seen as the "birthday" of the Church – a time when everything changed, and people were filled with hope, courage, and purpose.
Even if you’ve never heard of Pentecost before, it’s all about new beginnings, unity, and the amazing things that can happen when we become open to faith and hope - if that is something that you might need right now, come and be part of it.

Father's Day
This Father’s Day, we would love you to be part of our Father’s Day service as we gather for a special service of reflection and thanks.
For many, Father’s Day is a joyful opportunity to celebrate the dads, father figures, and mentors who have shaped our lives. For others, it can be a quieter or more complex day; a time of remembrance, or simply a moment to reflect.
In our service, we will take time to give thanks to God for the gift of relationships and for the ways we have been supported and shaped by others. There will also be space for reflection; recognising that not everyone’s story is the same, and that Father’s Day can stir a range of emotions.
We recognise that experiences of family are varied, and that Father’s Day may bring feelings of both gratitude and loss. Our service is a gentle opportunity to gather, to share in hope, to find community, and to be reminded that in God’s presence we are not alone.
Confirmations
Each year we celebrate the wonderful moment of Confirmation – and we’d love you to be part of it.
Confirmation is a joyful and significant step in the Christian journey. It’s an opportunity to affirm for yourself the promises made at your baptism – whether those promises were made by you as an adult, or by parents and godparents when you were younger.
It’s for people of all ages and stages. Some have grown up in the Church; others have discovered faith more recently. Wherever you find yourself, Confirmation is a chance to say “yes” to God in a personal and meaningful way.
It doesn’t mean you have all the answers, or that your faith is perfect or complete. None of us does. Instead, it’s about taking a step forward – marking a moment in your journey and being prayed for and encouraged as you continue to grow in faith.
If you or your child (usually from Year 6 upwards) would like to explore this next step, we would be delighted to hear from you.
Altrincham Festival: We're doing a float!
After many years away, we were thrilled to return last year with a float — and we had an absolute blast! The event is now in its 59th year and remains one of the largest free family celebrations in Trafford. The weekend includes a grand parade, plus two days of fun featuring fairs, entertainment, and stalls for all ages.
It’s a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community, celebrate, and enjoy everything this special event has to offer. Why not join us and be part of the festivities? Everyone is welcome!

We’d love to see you there!
