Let us go forward into 2012, knowing Jesus and making Him known. God richly bless you and your family, Revd Clive.

Dear Friends,

Welcome to St John's Church, Greenside and to Church of the Holy Spirit, Crawcrook. We are a friendly, lively Anglican church. 

The Parish of Greenside belongs in the Diocese of Durham and is located 8 miles south west of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, in the north east of England. Within our Parish are two churches at St John's, Greenside, a more traditional building and Church of the Holy Spirit, Crawcrook, a more contemporary one. The distance between the two church buildings is only a mile. We worship as one congregation, alternating each week between the two sites.

We are a Church trying to be faithful to the Good News of the Holy Scriptures. We believe in the authority of the Bible as the true revelation of God. We believe that the Gifts of the Holy Spirit are for today and seek God's wisdom in using them for the glory of His name. We believe the purpose of our Church is:

'To grow God's Kingdom by knowing Jesus and making Him known'

If you would like to know more about us, please contact me.

God bless you
Revd Clive Devonish, Vicar of Greenside Parish
