welcome

Christ Church Thornton is an Anglican Parish Church in the visionary Diocese of Blackburn in the Church of England. We’re beside the sea in Thornton-Cleveleys, Lancashire, in the north west of England, a few miles north of Blackpool. 

We are Bible-believing, Gospel-driven, Spirit-led Christians who take seriously the sacraments of Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. We prioritise friendliness over formality but when tradition matters we do so with a contemporary touch. 

We have the world’s best message to share – that God offers abundant life, reconciliation and hope of the best life to come
