St Andrew's is part of the family of the Church of England, based in Haughton-le-Skerne. Haughton is an ancient village, which is now part of Darlington, a town with an exciting and vibrant life in the north east of England.
As a lively and welcoming Anglican Church we serve a number of communities including Haughton village, Whinfield, Red Hall and Springfield, and also welcome folks from further afield.
Our worship brings together contemporary music and the treasures of previous generations. We thoughtfully explore how the Bible's wisdom can address the challenges of our time. We have a variety of Sunday services. When a Sunday falls on the 5th Sunday of the month we encourage folks to stay on for a shared lunch which may be cooked or sometimes "bring & share"
Alongside the church services our vision is to serve the local community through other means. We are a hub for the Darlington Food Network. The church hall is available for hire for personal and community events. You can check the availablity of the hall with our online calendar. We have a "MIssional Community", that is a group of people dedicated to spreading the good news of the Kingdom, and they sponser The Tea Time church on the first Sunday of the month, and the Wednesday "Cooking 4 Life" group. We normally run two Alpha Courses a year in the Summer and Autumn terms.
Social events take place from time to time. These events normally include a Harvest Barn Dance, a Christmas Fayre, a Burns Supper and an Agape meal (normally on Maundy Thursday in Holy Week). Advance notice of these are published in monthly pewsheets and the "Latest News" section of this website.
As a church we are very much involved in servicing Baptisms and Weddings, and there is some useful information on planning your wedding in church here on this site.
There are a wide range of other events during the week. We also run a number of home based "Discipleship Groups" for Bible study, fellowship and prayer rom time to time.
St.Andrew's Scouts and Guides are affiliated to the church and usually attend a number of "Parade Services" every year.
St.Andrew's Haughton works closely with St.Andrew's, Sadberge. The Vicar and staff team service the spiritual needs of Sadberge Village and should be contacted for all queries about services, baptisms and weddings.
