Celebrate

"There are few places more beautiful than the Church of Christ the Consoler, which helped to make this moment surrounded by family and friends that little bit extra special."

Christ the Consoler remains consecrated, allowing us to offer a range of services to mark special milestones. These are offered with the support of local clergy, and we can accommodate up to 280 guests. For your post-service celebration, Newby Hall & Gardens and the newly refurbished Black Lion pub are excellent options. We're happy to connect you with them.

Baptism Service

Baptism

One of the architectural gems of the church is the baptism font, which forms the center of your baptism service. Whether you desire a private service or to be part of a typical Sunday service, we can accommodate from a small family group to 150 guests.

Wedding Service

Wedding

Nestled in the parkland of Newby Hall Estate, our church is a breathtaking setting for a marriage celebration. Since we're no longer an 'open' church, the simplest service is a wedding blessing (requiring a separate legal service). For a full wedding service, a special licence from the Archbishop of Canterbury is needed. We also host non-religious services and vow renewals.

Please email us at hello@christtheconsoler.com for more information.

Funeral Service

Funeral

Christ the Consoler is a truly unique dedication. Built in memory of a lost son, the central Rose window offers solace to those saying a final farewell. We provide a tranquil space for a respectful gathering to celebrate a life well lived.

We can connect you with a local funeral director to plan the service. Contact us at hello@christtheconsoler.com.
