Welcome To Christ Church, Ramsbottom 

Introduction

Christ Church is a friendly church open to all, and famous for home made cakes after the service and at our cafes and events.

We are located on Great Eaves Road, Ramsbottom

Our Sunday service starts at 10:30am and finishes around 11:45am, when you are encouraged to stop for a drink and eat cake, and chat. There are regular activities during the week, and the building is also used daily by various groups.

Christ Church is a Baptist-Methodist partnership formed from Ramsbottom Methodist and Baptist Churches in 1972. We are an active member of Churches Together in Ramsbottom and part of the Baptist Union of Great Britain and the Methodist Church in Britain. As an LEP we commit ourselves to express the visible unity of Christ’s church by sharing together in prayer, shared worship and ministry, in making and nurturing Christian disciples, in serving God’s mission in our neighbourhood and beyond, keeping faithful to both Baptist and Methodist traditions.

Our Text for 2025 is

We moved to our current building in Great Eaves Road in 1999. Our building provides comfortable and modern accommodation with good access and facilities for those with a disability including a hearing loop. We have ample on-site parking at the rear of the church.
