Where we are based

The Metropolitan Community Church of Manchester is based in the Anglican Parish Church of Saint John Chrysostom, Victoria Park, Manchester.

Our main worship service is held at 4.00pm each Sunday.

Saint Chrysostom's is situated at the junction of Anson Road (A34) with Oxford Place and Daisy Bank Road, alongside Conyngham Road, approximately 2 miles south of the city centre. (If you're looking at a city map, Anson Road starts off in the city centre as Princess Street, then becomes Upper Brook Street, and finally becomes Anson Road near the church.)  The church's postcode is M14 5BG.

Parking

There is ample on-road parking along Conyngham Road and further along Oxford Place beyond the yellow lines near the junction.

By bus from the city centre

Bus services along Upper Brook Street/Anson Road (number 50 to East Didsbury) from the city centre (Spring Gardens/King Street stop CM, via Princess Street/Town Hall stop SB) leave every 10 minutes on weekdays and Saturdays, or every 15 minutes on Sundays. The journey takes around 15 minutes. Book a ticket to Daisy Bank Road.

If you arrive in Manchester by train at Piccadilly station, the shortest route to a suitable bus stop would be to walk down Whitworth Street to Princess Street (approx 300 yards) and pick up the number 50 bus at the stop on Princess Street/Hart Street.

An alternative option from the city centre - particularly if you arrive at Oxford Road station - is to take any of the buses travelling along Oxford Road towards Rusholme/Withington/Didsbury and get off near the junction of Oxford Place with Oxford Road, just as you enter Rusholme Village. It is then a 5-minute walk down Oxford Place to Saint Chrysostom's.

On arrival

For all worship services in the church, the main west door is usually open for access. The door we normally use for access at other times is on Anson Road (nearest the bell tower, to the left of the building). This door is equipped with a bell and a small ramp, and offers the most direct access to meeting rooms, the Pastor's office, and on-the-flat access to the main church for disabled visitors.

Our hosts

Saint Chrysostom's parish has its own website at http://www.come.to/chrysostoms/ which is very informative about the church's history and ministry.
