This Circuit, with its 15 churches, came into being on 1st September 2010 and
it has been formed from the former Belper Circuit and part of the former
Ripley Circuit. On the same day we welcomed Rev Marian Crawford
who will be responsible for Codnor, Kilburn and Waingroves.
Rev Susan Chambers has responsibility for Ambergate,
Belper Central, Heage, Holbrook Moor, Horsley Wooodhouse
and Nether Heage with myself having Cross O'th Hands,
Denby Bottles, Duffield, Marehay, Openwoodgate and Ripley.
    The leadership are looking forward to exploring new possibilities
for mission around the new Circuit. We hope that this website
will enable you to learn more about how we are working to bring
the good news of Jesus Christ into our area.

               Best Wishes
