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])
Easter Eggs Real Easter Eggs are available in church to purchase for £5. These are the only Fairtrade eggs to include a copy of the Easter story in the box. Buy one for family, friends, or donate one to the food bank.

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

Lost Property Is on a table at the back of church. Any items not claimed will be disposed of at the end of the month.
Bell Ringing Have you heard the bells ringing at Calverley Parish Church? Have you ever wondered how they are rung? We're a small team and would like more people from the village and locally to join us, and if we have enough interest we hope to 'Ring for the King' for the Coronation in May. Small groups can also visit the ringing room to learn more about bellringing. There is no obligation to start ringing - just come along to see what we do! Visits will be on our usual Thursday evening practice but do need to be pre-booked. We can take no more than 4 people at a time (over 11s only and under 18s must be accompanied by a parent). Interested? Please contact the Ringing Team via [email protected]
