Please join us on the evening of Sunday 31 May at 6pm when we shall give thanks for the season's lambs. The Ayrtons of Abbeystead will lead the singing and Roger Carswell will speak.
Refreshments will follow and a time of fellowship. Come and join us.
For a couple of Sundays in April, I cycled across to Hetton Chapel from Salem Chapel to lead the service. My route is only 15 miles for I take a short cut through the villages of West Marton, Bank Newton, Gargrave and Flasby. Back lanes are much quieter than main roads though they are also less well maintained (which beggars belief considering the state of our main roads).
Rochester Friends’ Meeting House dates back to 1780 and has served well the city’s Quaker community. It was built on the site of an earlier structure from the 1670s which would have been a focus for persecution when Tory mobs sometimes engaged in arsoning dissenting places of worship. Curiously, a report about the current building states:
Regardless of whether you attend another church (or no church at all), I would like to take this opportunity of inviting you to our annual Bible Week taking place in the last week of May. You may attend as many or as few sessions as you like; there is no charge and refreshments will be provided. Details are below and I hope to see you there.
