BLACKSTAFF UNION
The United Parishes of St Mary Magdalene, St Aidan with Christ Church, St Simon with St Philip (Drew Memorial)
St Mary Magdalene Parish Church belongs to the Church of Ireland, subscribes to the holy catholic church and is a member of the worldwide Anglican Communion. It is situated in Donegall Pass, close to the centre of the busy city of Belfast, Northern Ireland and is one of a few city centre churches still managing to exist in today’s climate where unfortunately, we see many inner city church doors having to close. We form part of a Union with the parishes of St Aidan (Sandy Row) and St Simon with St Philip (Donegall Road) to form the Blackstaff Union. We believe that this development will lead to further growth and expansion of the churches. We are enjoying the opportunity to meet and worship together in joint services which take place on a rota basis across the three churches.
The current rota can be viewed by visiting the Notice Board here or below.
Parishioners of this church consist of those who live in the surrounding area, and others who live outside the area but still have strong links with the Parish. Our mission is to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ crucified, arisen and ascended, and dwelling with us through the power of the Holy Spirit. We hope you enjoy your visit to our church site and if you have any comments, we’d love to hear from you.
