Welcome to the All Hallows’ Church website for the parish of Kirkburton, Highburton, and the surrounding area. We are a welcoming and inclusive church for people of all ages and backgrounds that wish to worship together, and meet up for local social events to serve and support our local community.
We see involvement with the local community as a key part of our role as Christians and we now have several members trained as pastoral ministers as well as others who link with many of the local organisations. We have two church first schools in the parish as well as a middle school and involvement with these schools has improved considerably over the last few years.
We are blessed with a beautiful 800 year old church which can seat about 440 people and which fills you with a sense of wonder when you consider how God has been worshipped in this same building for eight centuries. We also have a responsibility to maintain the upkeep of this historic building through various fundraising initiatives.
