St Chad's Woodseats

Living a Life of Faith, Energised by Love

Christmas 2023

This Christmas at St Chad's we have lots of special events lined up along with our regular services as we celebrate the birth of Jesus.

We also have an advent trail for you to follow round the streets of Woodseats and Beauchief and collect a few gifts as you go. Find out more by clicking here.

This Christmas is the first with our new minister Rev Jon Hidden and we’d also love to see you – whether you’re a regular visitor, haven’t been for a while or have never stepped inside the church building.
