Latest news about the reorganisation of our parish
- There are at present two Churches in our combined community, with one Parish Priest covering both. The church in Marple Bridge was scheduled to close on Easter Sunday this year but a reprieve has been granted by our bishop following representations by parishioners. In September this year we will be part of an new parish organisation covering Buxton, Chapel-en-le-Frith, New Mills and Marple Bridge. There will be two priests serving these four churches. The new parish priest, Fr. Tobin, will be based in Buxton and our own Fr. Emmanuel will be leaving us to take charge in Matlock.
- It now depends on us to keep our church open.
