We are St Laurence's Church, a lively Anglican Church in Middleton St George, near Darlington in the Diocese of Durham.
Please have a look around our website to find out a bit more about us.
If you'd like to get to know us in person (and we hope you will), please join us for any of our usual Sunday morning service.

What an amazing turnout for our Community Act of Remembrance this morning. It was a privilege and a pleasure to be together for this important occasion.
“They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them”
**Service of Remembrance**
Our Service of Remembrance will begin at 9.45am at St George’s Academy, followed by a walk (or drive) down Middleton Lane, and a community Act of Remembrance at the War Memorial from 10.50am onwards which will include the silence at 11am.
Refreshments will be served at the Community Centre following the service (from 11.30 until 1.30pm).
Please do join us for this very special occasion.
** PARTY FOR PRE-SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN THIS SATURDAY**
We are hosting a Light Party for all Pre-school aged children and their families this Saturday between 4 and 5pm at St George’s Academy.
Everyone is welcome, and there is no charge for this event. Come dressed in yellow, white, sparkly or bright clothing ready to have lots of fun!

Anyone fancy a day trip tomorrow?

**DO YOU KNOW ANYONE WHO WOULD ENJOY A DAY TRIP TO BEAMISH TOMORROW (THURS 12TH JULY)?**We are fortunate enough to have been able to borrow Tees Valley Rural Community Council's community bus to run outings and tomorrow is our trial run - our bus was fully booked up, but due to illness there are now a few spare seats. If you, or anyone you know, would fancy a trip out, here's what you need to know:
* Entry to Beamish will be at a discounted price of £6 for the day (discounted annual tickets also available and carers may be eligible for free entry)
* The only other cost will be for fuel - this will be dependent upon how many people are in the bus, but is likely to be between £6 and £12pp
* Beamish provides wheelchairs for anyone needing one
* Trip open to anyone of any age
* The bus will leave MSG Community Centre at 9am, but if you need to be collected from home due to mobility or transport problems, this can be arranged.
For further details, and to secure a place, please call Alex on 01325 335139 or 07913 427766 (if no answer, please leave a message).
