A time and place to stop and pray this advent

The next Second Sunday Supplement will be held on 14th December.

This will be a time and space to stop and pray. There will be prayer stations on the theme of waiting, in the chapel from 4.30-6pm. Feel free to come and go within this time. There will be a short prayer and blessing together at 5.50pm to finish, and you are welcome to stay for the evening service of Holy Communion at 6.30pm.

An Afternoon with John Bell – Saturday 13th September 2014

An afternoon workshop with John Bell,  at York Central Methodist Church organised in conjunction with RSCM North and East Yorkshire.

He works throughout the world, lecturing in theological colleges in the UK, Canada and the United States, but is primarily concerned with the renewal of congregational worship at the grass roots level.
