Having decorated the church for harvest we had an enjoyable Harvest service lead by our lay pastor, Eileen on 11 October. We were joined by our friends from Collingham Methodist Church and followed the service with a jacket potato lunch. Our total food gifts to the Wetherby Food bank was just short of 40kgs. Thank you to all who supported us in the decoration of the church, preparation and service of lunch and food donations.

Please join us for our new ‘ Friends and Fellowship’ afternoon on the 2nd and 4th Monday each month between 2-4pm. A variety of activities will be on offer including hobbies, crafts, quizzes, reflective thoughts and prayers accompanied with tea, coffee and plenty of chat. Everyone will receive a warm welcome so please come along and give it a try.

At our 133rd chapel anniversary in May we were pleased to unveil a plaque in our garden in memory of Valerie Green. Valerie was a long standing and dedicated member of our church. She was also a Girl Guide leader, where she was known as “Robin”,  for over 30 years. Her kind bequest enabled our garden makeover. Please feel free to visit our garden and take a quiet moment to pause and reflect. You may also spot the Robin in tribute to Valerie too! 

Our Noah’s Ark afternoon proved a big hit with the friends and families who joined us for a treasure hunt, craft activities, songs and games. The star attractions being the donkey rides from Gary and Eeyore! Thank you to all who came and supported the event and special thanks to Eileen and Charlie for their hard work in making the afternoon so lovely.

Last month we said farewell to the Rev. Steve Jakeman who is now retiring from the ministry. We wish him and his wife Sue well for their future and thank them for their hardwork and dedication over the past four years.

Meanwhile we are pleased to announce our Minister will be the Rev. Ann Fox who joined the circuit in September 2020. We look forward to working with her and getting to know her better.
