We are committed to being a friendly welcoming church with scriptural based teaching, serving our community. Our aim in worship is to offer a range of styles allowing all to meet with their creator God. Alongside our clergy, we are fortunate to have a team of lay members who serve, particularly in leading worship and pastoral care. We encourage times of fellowship in our Church Centre over coffee or a meal before or after most of our worship, and occasionally our informal services are held in the Church Centre.

The Church of the Holy Ascension, Hyde is open daily for private prayer.

Accessibility: We have a loop amplifier attached to our sound system, for hearing aid wearers. For notes on access, see the map section at the bottom of this page.
