Verse of the Day
For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
Our Story
The first St Matthews Church in Dinnington was built in 1835, prior to this the parishioners travelled the four miles to Ponteland to attend St Mary’s church and often in winter when Prestwick Carr was flooded made the journey by boat. The original church was situated near the main road to the north side of the main gate and featured a square tower, a photograph of the old church is displayed in the vestry of the present church.
