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.

Easter

Easter Sunday 5th April 2026

We will be celebrating the joy of Easter in many ways throughout the parish of St Mary and St John Sandbach. The many services are listed in the picture opposite or in the files below. Please do come and join in as much as you can, everyone is welcome.

Some thoughtful words from our parish vicar Revd Bee Boyde:

“Come and see that new life can appear where we thought nothing more could grow.

Come and see that hope can begin quietly without noise or spectacle.

Come and see that God is often at work before we realise it, the stone already rolled away before we reach the garden”

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

A woman in a white robe with a purple stole stands at an altar inside a church, holding a booklet. The altar has a candle, a silver chalice, and other items. The church interior features stained glass windows and dark wooden pews.

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.
