Sandbach and the Heath

On 1st June 2025 the parish of St Mary church Sandbach expanded and has now become the parish of St Mary and St John Sandbach. It is also known as the benefice of Sandbach and the Heath.

The Bishop of Stockport commissioned our vicar Bee as Rural Dean at St Mary Sandbach on Thursday 6th November 2025 at 7pm. The parish enjoyed a well attended service commissioning Bee - the first Vicar of this parish to take on this role for over 100 years! See photo below.

Ordinary Time - Trinity

We are in the six months between Pentecost and Advent.

Far from ordinary -

‘Trinity’ reminds us that with Pentecost, God has made Himself known to us in all His fullness as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. ‘Ordinary time’ tells us that this is the season where, now armed with the insights and power of the Holy Spirit, we can revisit the life of Jesus with new eyes, new heart, see new things in the faith, see new opportunities to serve God.

Bee’s sponsored 10k

We are so proud of our Vicar Bee, who is challenging herself to run 10k on Sat. 12th September to raise money for our urgently needed repairs on the roof at St Mary’s.

Many events having being happening during the year to help us pay for these repairs and this time Bee is leading the way, with this inspiring sponsored run. (Sponsor forms are in church).

Vision

Growing God’s Kingdom in us and through us

To be a multi generational church that actively serves the community and is recognised for sharing the love of God

Who We Are

However you describe your spiritual journey, we would love for you to join us on the adventure.

Together as church family we seek to be more like Jesus, to help one another, to share our gifts, to pray and worship God together.

We also seek to serve and care for the people of Sandbach so that all may know they are loved.

Whether you come to church regularly, would be interested in finding out more or simply want to experience the peace and tranquillity of this ancient building.
