Welcome to Huddersfield Parish Church of St.Peter’s.
We are a church seeking to serve God in every aspect of our lives and the life of our town. Our Anglican worship draws on the riches of the Christian tradition old and new.
Prayer has been said here for hundreds of years; we believe in the transforming nature of prayer in our lives today.
We seek to work closely with the other Christian churches. We seek to deepen friendship and understanding with other faith communities. We are a congregation seeking to grow: we have been given a great task and a great vision. We welcome people from all backgrounds to join us on the journey of faith.
Advent at HPC – Waiting together and exploring our faith

We’ll be posting some more information about that here on the blog – but in the meantime Rev Amanda has shared the…

Supporting The Welcome Centre, one of our key charity partners in Huddersfield, we encourage anyone and everyone to join in too….

Serving our Worship
Since we returned to worshipping on site together, and the restrictions required for social distancing have been relaxed, we have been re-building our serving team at St Peter’s. The “servers” are volunteers who robe and participate in our services – in ways that help the rest of us to worship. We asked Pam Czerepaniak, who…
A Diaconal Detour
This is a guest blog from our part-time curate Carol “As some of you will know I have been absent from HPC for a few months. The reason for my absence was so that I could take up a placement with the Mirfield team parish. God must have had his own plan for all this…
