About us
The Callington Cluster is a group of five churches located in the east of Cornwall, close to the Tamar Valley. We are part of the Diocese of Truro and Isles of Scilly. within the Church of England. Our churches are located in Callington, South Hill, , Stoke Climsland, Linkinhorne (all PL17) and Upton Cross (PL14).
Our five churches have a variety of worship styles ranging from traditional through to contemporary, enabling people to engage with God through worship that is familiar to them or that gives them an opportunity to try something new. As we are currently in Transition, worship is run by committed teams of local worship leaders, Readers and PTOs but we hope to have a priest in place by the end of the year.
When it comes to teaching we love to have the Bible brought to life in a way that is accessible to all and is relevant for today. We also trust in the work of the Holy Spirit to guide and empower us to live full lives.
