Welcome to the website of St Augustine’s – the Church of England in Kirkby-in-Cleveland and Great Broughton.  The inhabitants of our two villages have professed their Christian faith, and have worshipped on this site, for over a thousand years and we continue this wonderful tradition.

We are part of a four-church benefice, which includes the Parishes of Ingleby Greenhow, Kildale and Chop Gate, in the Diocese of York.

You will find information on the team, on the services in our church and on our support for all in the community at the key points in their lives, by scrolling through the following pages.  The calendar of services and the notice pages, which are regularly up-dated, are a good first point of reference.

The service on Sunday, 19th April 2026, is Holy Communion at 9:30 a.m. at St Augustine’s. The service will be followed by the Annual Parochial Church Meeting in the church hall.

The readings for the Third Sunday of Easter are: Acts 2:14a, 36-41; Psalm 116:1-3, 10-end; 1 Peter 1:17-23; Luke 24:13-35.

The Gospel reading is the well-known episode known as the Road to Emmaus. Two of Jesus’ disciples take a walk in the country and meet Jesus along the way. Having explained to him the events of Easter, their disappointed hopes and bewilderment, Jesus explains to them from the Scriptures what has happened and what it means. Perhaps they are too preoccupied with their own grief and thoughts to recognise him. That can be like us. Jesus can be in our midst, unrecognised, unknown. In our busy lives and churches, we may not recognise our risen Lord. But, as with the disciples at Emmaus, we can recognise Jesus among us in broken bread. Our Holy Communions are this opportunity. How do we take it?
