What is a Mission Church?
A mission church is a church that helps spread its faith. It often serves a smaller community or a specific purpose. The Kirkland Mission Church is part of the larger Church of England.
How Churches are Organized
Churches like Kirkland Mission Church are part of a bigger system. They belong to a "deanery" called Calder. A deanery is like a group of local churches. These deaneries are then part of an even larger area called a "diocese." Kirkland Mission Church is in the diocese of Carlisle.
Benefice and Status
The church is also part of a "benefice." This means it shares its clergy (like a vicar or priest) with other nearby churches. The Kirkland Mission Church shares its benefice with Lamplugh and Ennerdale. Unlike some very old or famous buildings, this church is not a "listed building." This means it doesn't have special legal protection for its historical or architectural importance.
