ORGANIST WANTED!

We at Holy Saviour Church, Hitchin, are looking for an organist to play our beautiful 15-stop tracker-action organ at our Sunday services. The organ was designed and built in 1987 by John Bailey of Grant, Degens & Bradbeer, Northampton, using as much of the existing materials and pipework of the original 1865 Walker organ as possible, and was opened by Peter Hurford. It has since been regularly maintained by Bishop & Son of Ipswich, and was completely cleaned and overhauled in 2017.

Holy Saviour Anglican Church has a strong musical tradition. We have an enthusiastic RSCM-affiliated SATB choir with an excellent reputation, having performed nationally and abroad. The ideal candidate would be able to work with the choir to enhance the musical life of the church further.

Could you help us and share our vision of music in the future? If so, do contact Brian Caswell via the Contact Form and he will be happy to give you further information.

We look forward to hearing from you!


ALTERATIONS TO THE PARISH OF HITCHIN

There are now four parishes in Hitchin – one parish for each of the existing Anglican churches. Our parish is the Parish of Holy Saviour, Hitchin (Registered Charity Number 1205456).


WELCOME!

Welcome to the website of Holy Saviour Church. We hope you will find it interesting and helpful.

Holy Saviour Church is a beautiful church with a special atmosphere and is cherished by the people who care for it and worship here.  We are a friendly, welcoming congregation.

Our worship is ‘modern catholic’ in its ethos, with a variety of services, and a tradition of excellent music. We have a sound/loop system, and wheelchairs are available.  We arrange many special services during the year, and are the home of the Hitchin Christmas Tree Festival.

You can find us on Radcliffe Road in Hitchin, an attractive market town in North Hertfordshire, in the Diocese of St Albans. Each of the four parish churches in Hitchin serves a district of the town: Holy Saviour, St Faith’s, St Mark’s, and St Mary’s.  We are also an active member of Churches Together in Hitchin.

Our Parish Mission statement:
We aim to share God’s love, forgiveness and care with the whole community through proclamation, service, action, partnership, nurture and spirituality

Please use our contact page if you have any further questions or would like to get in touch with us, and we look forward to seeing you.
