Sunday Service Times This Sunday, and throughout August we'll be having just the one Sunday Service at 10am. This will be an intergenerational service with the kids staying in, and this week there are baptisms!
St. Wilfrid’s, Calverley Beer Festival Saturday 8th October, Save the Date! To help the event be a great success, we're looking for sponsorships. Whether you’re a local business, an individual, or a family group, we have varying levels of sponsorships available. For further information please contact [email protected].
Dogs The question of dogs attending Sunday services was raised and taken to the PCC, and the decision was made that dogs will not be allowed in church during Sunday services unless they are an assistance dog or therapy dog. This is to allow all those attending Sunday services to feel at ease and comfortable. We hope you understand our reasoning and continue to come without your dogs. We will sometime in the future have a Special Pet Service where all God’s creatures will be made very welcome!
Richard Crooks’ Funeral Richard’s family write the following: Dad's funeral will be at 11am on 9th August 2022 at St. Wilfrid’s Church, Calverley. Friends from St. Wilfrid's are more than welcome to attend the service. We also extend an invitation to join us at Calverley Golf Club afterwards for a light lunch. I would be grateful if you could let me know if you are attending (the service and more importantly the lunch), by emailing me (Tom) on [email protected], so that we have an idea of numbers for the church and lunch afterwards.
Leeds Pride Sunday 7th August is Leeds Pride and Revd. Rob will be showing his support by attending the parade in the city centre with the group Christians at Pride. If you’d like to join him, please meet in Dortmund Square at 2pm. We will also be holding a Vigil for Pride on the evening of Saturday 6th August, where all are welcome.
God is Love, and those who live in love live in God, the Bible tells us.
We look forward to a truly inclusive church, Where prejudices and barriers are torn down, And all feel welcome in His house.
We celebrate the diversity of mankind, and the rich tapestry which God has woven.
