The Parish of Denmark supports its community through ministry, pastoral care and two churches:
- Saint Leonard (Strickland Street, Denmark).
- Saint George (Vista Street, Walpole).
The Reverend Sue Lodge-Calvert was commissioned as Rector of the Parish on 25th July 2010. Click here for further information.
We are part of the world wide Anglican community and we believe:
- God is revealed to us as Father, Son and Holy Spirit within a unity.
- The Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments "contain all things necessary to salvation".*
- The Apostles' Creed, affirmed at Baptism; and the Nicene Creed, as the sufficient statement of the Christian Faith.*
- The two Sacraments ordained by Christ Himself — Baptism and Holy Communion.*
- The Historic Episcopate. *
- God's gifts include the ability to think and to choose, with guidance of the Holy Spirit.
*:As agreed at the Lambeth Conference 1888
(the "Lambeth Quadrilateral") and reaffirmed at Lambeth
in 1988.
