St Nicholas, Newchurch, Rossendale, has been here since 1511. Over the generations it has been a place where people have laughed and cried, prayed and worshipped, and found the love and peace of God.
The worship is modern catholic, reflective and spiritual but above all, happy and welcoming.
The Sacrament is reserved in the church and all major Saint days are celebrated with the Eucharist.
Everyone is made to feel welcome here and everyone matters.
