Welcome

Welcome to the home page of St. Paul's Church, Oldham, in Hathershaw - one of many parish churches in the Church of England; part of the Diocese of Manchester.

We work closely with the parish of St. Thomas, Werneth.

The Notices

Church Rota If you would like a printed copy of the rota with your dates on, please let Nick know.

Board Games Group The next one is at 10:00 am on Saturday 21 March in the Community Room, and then every third Saturday of the month. Bring a game to play, or play some one else's. Play something that you know or something new. Bring your friends or come alone! All ages welcome.

Jar of Grace Please join in our annual Lenten Jar of Grace appeal for UNICEF, the international children’s charity. Please save coins and bank notes in a jar, and bring the cash saved into church at Easter. We will then send it all off to UNICEF to support their vital work. Or you can use the contactless card reader at church, making sure to select UNICEF first - please ask for help if you’re unsure!
