Parish Retreat to Parcival Hall

A weekend retreat away from everything. A time for rest, relaxation and fun. A time for worship and being together.

Come and join us for a Parish weekend at Parcevall Hall, the Diocesan Retreat House in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. Starting with dinner on Friday 21 July through to lunch on Sunday 23 July. Bookings are now being taken – for more information speak to Joan Williams, Jean Bradley or Matthew after this service.

Pints of View

Thursday 9 February 2023 at 7.30 pm
The Brown Cow

Come and join us in the pub as we chat about how Christianity relates to the rest of our lives. From events in the news to how prayer can help us grow, exploring the deeper meaning of the Eucharist to unpacking just what happens when we celebrate Christmas. Every meeting is open to anyone, no matter if you’ve come before or you’re totally new.

Messy Church

Sunday 12 February 2023 at 4.00 pm
St Mary's Church Whitkirk Community Centre

Church, but more hands-on. Join us in the Community Centre for drinks and a biscuit, get stuck in with activities around the week’s theme, and then end with a short, informal act of worship in the church.

Pancake Social

Tuesday 21 February 2023 at 6.00 pm
St Mary's Church Whitkirk Community Centre

Come along and have a flipping good time as we prepare for Lent with pancakes, games, races and quizzes.

We’ve got everything for the classic sugar and lemon juice pancake, but if you fancy a different topping just bring it along! Entry is free, but donations toward costs are gratefully accepted.
