We are a community of people who are seeking to love and serve our local community.  We aim to be a mission-shaped church that is building on it’s solid foundation of the past to extend God’s kingdom throughout Calverton in new and exciting ways.

We strive together

– to follow Jesus

– to care for one another, our community and the world

– and to grow in our Christian faith

We asked our church community to sum us up...

"Friendly, caring, welcoming and fun for all".

"Before becoming part of this church I had never felt like I was part of anywhere, but now I belong to a vast and loving community and have a family I never had".

"A warm, welcoming church with a hunger to know God, and grow in their faith and with a desire to reach out with love, compassion and care for the community".

"As a newcomer to Calverton, I am glad to be part of St Wilfrid's church.  it is a very friendly, relaxed, and welcoming church with a focus on following Jesus while living out our lives together in a down to earth and practical way".

"St Wilfrid's is welcoming, inviting and inclusive.  choosing a church is about finding a place where you can benefit from and contribute to a community that reflects Christ's teaching on love acceptance and fellowship".

In 2024 we are focusing on what it means to respond to Jesus' call to 'come, follow me' through 6 areas of life, both individually and corporately.

Looking ahead

Looking towards 2030, we want to continue our journey to being an inclusive, diverse, and nurturing church.  As we follow Jesus, we are growing disciples and providing living hope for our community in Calverton and beyond. We are building God’s kingdom as we care and grow together.
