Want more Love, Joy, Peace?

Christmas is just the beginning…

Love Joy Peace is a free five-session course designed to offer the gift of Christian Spirituality without obligation or requirement.  It is intended to offer an insight into the experience of Christian faith, through guided meditation, explanation, discussion and action.

Take some space in January to explore these big themes with others and see if Love, Joy, Peace might be for life, not just for Christmas.

This January you are invited

Tuesdays 7:30-9pm at St Michael and All Angels’, Haworth

Wednesdays 9:30-11am at St James’s, Cross Roads

Giving and Generosity

Most of the budgeted spending that allows us to be present and active as a church community comes from regular giving from church members and supporters.  Thank you to everyone who contributes to this!  If you would like to find out more about giving, including regular giving through direct debit or volunteering opportunities, then please get in touch for a conversation.

Listening and Caring

We have people who would be happy to listen and pray with you.  Please ask whoever has been leading the service today, or contact Rev. Oli Preston via the contact page on this web site
