We would like to encourage you all to start returning to Church on Sundays.
The Parish Church of St Marks’ has been the focal point for Christian ministry in the village of Heyside since was first consecrated in 1878. Our Church's interior has been in it's present layout since a major reorganisation in 1971. We are a friendly congregation and welcome visitors or new members to our open, friendly Sunday morning Family Communion Services.
Our Sunday Communion Service starts at 10:00am each Sunday, but check the Calendar for special Service times. Our Children join us in Church part way through the service from Sunday School which also starts at 10:00am in the Parish Hall.
There are a multitude of other activities which go on in the Parish, many based in our Parish Hall and Community Centre situated behind the Church and a major landmark in the village of Heyside as people travel from Shaw to Oldham.
