What we do

The Chapter of The Transfiguration is a group of clergy, who are priests of The Society who seek to maintain the faith and order as the Church of England has received it.

The chapter is body that gathers for mutual support, but it is far more.

Comprising the parishes in the Diocese of Liverpool, we also include the two Traditional Catholic parishes on Wirral, in the Diocese of Chester.

The parishes served by these clergy have pledged to work together to advance the mission of the church through discipleship and evangelism. 

Alongside our own church, the parishes include: 

​

St Columba, Anfield

St John the Baptist, Tuebrook

St James the Great, Haydock

St Luke & Holy Trinity, Southport

St John the Evangelist, Walton

St Andrew, West Kirby (Diocese of Chester)

St Thomas, Chester (Diocese of Chester)

Evangelism for catholic parishes

At our devotional day in 2023 at St Agnes  the need was identified to have some formal training in evangelism and sharing faith for our laity. The day was well attended for August and the afternoon exercised allowed everyone to speak directly into how we, as a group of Society arishes, can serve them effectively in mission.
