The Parish Of Deane
New Rector
The Revd Dr Terry Clark has joined the Parish of St Mary the Virgin, Deane as Team Rector. The Celebration of a New Ministry took place on Monday 1st February in front of the congregation and marks a new period for the Church in Deane. He joins a long line of clergy that we can trace back to 1227 when Thomas, clerk of Eccles was in charge. We look forward to Terry's ministry and invite existing and prospective members of our congregation to join us for Sunday Worship at 9:00am, 10:30am and 6:00pm each week.
Deane Parish covers a large area, so large that in the last century an outreach church was opened at Over Hulton.
The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, Deane and the Church of St Andrew, Over Hulton serve the needs of the residents of a vast area. Some of our activities are joint and others more relevant to the area they serve. For example, we have a joint Parochial Church Council but members are based at both churches.
This site will try to cover our communion and diversity.
