Welcome to St Stephen’s

St Stephen’s is open for worship every Sunday morning, and we welcome everyone, whether exploring their own faith and spirituality to those who would already identify as having a strong faith.


St Stephen’s is the Parish Church serving the village of Moulton, in Cheshire.

Right in the heart of the village, we try to be a warm welcoming place where you can be yourself, worshipping God, celebrating the happy moments in life, and being comforted in the sad ones.

We have a range of services, from a traditional Eucharist twice a month, to a very informal family service.

We’re open for anyone to come along, whether you live in the village or not; whether you have a strong faith, or are exploring; by yourself or with friends and family.
