What’s the Story About Easter? Our next occasion for inviting children from both our local primary schools into church will be a Monday and Tuesday towards the end of term to tell them the Easter story. However, to give the children the best possible experience, we would like to enlist some more volunteers for our 'What’s the Story? team. Do you enjoy telling dramatic stories and helping children with crafts?- Then this is for you! If you would like to find out more or join the team, please contact Brenda Pickard ([email protected])

Lent Course - Rhythm of Life Beginning in The Barn on Tuesday 28th February, 7-8:30pm, and running for 5 weeks, this Lent course will offer an opportunity for us to re-align and keep Christ at the centre of our daily lives. Through practical commitments, opportunities for mutual support, and recommended resources.
“As Christians, we believe Jesus should be at the heart of our rhythms of life, whatever our circumstances. This will have a far-reaching impact on our own wellbeing and the good of others – on our loving, living and learning. I would like to invite you to join the diocesan ‘Rhythm of Life’ venture. This will involve individual commitments, accessing resources and mutual support. Some key areas will be given special attention: praying, encouraging, sharing, reflecting, celebrating, resting, and creating.” - The Rt Revd Nick Baines, Bishop of Leeds

Prayers We have begun including individuals in our intercessions on Sunday morning. The first bookmark is available in church and includes a list of those prayer needs. If you would like to be prayed for, you can write your request on a tag and hang it on the prayer tree, email Sally or Rob, or just have a word with us on Sunday mornings.
Small Groups Church comes in many different shapes & sizes, and as well as Sunday worship, there's a number of Small Groups that meet regularly on weekdays.

If you have any questions or would like to join or start a Small Group, please contact Victoria via [email protected].
