Church Weekend at Grange over Sands - A good news story from Haworth Road Methodist Church

On 7 June 23 of us travelled to Grange for our annual weekend away. We all assembled for dinner on Friday evening and left after lunch on Sunday after having a good time.

We were introduced to the theme for the weekend with a DVD on Friday evening. On Saturday morning we divided into three groups for discussion. Saturday afternoon was free for us to please ourselves and on Saturday evening there was a social and entertainment. After service and Communion on Sunday morning we had another couple of hours free before lunch.

For anyone who has not been on one of these weekends, I can recommend them. the food was delicious and the weather was absolutely gorgeous (although I can't promise that every year of course). The topics are always interesting and thought provoking. It is a way of getting to know each other better and there is always a great feeling of fellowship. I always find the whole weekend extremely inspirational.

A year in the life of Baildon Methodist Church

The snippets below are taken from Baildon Methodist Church report to the Charity Commissioners for the year ending August 2017. Church membership increased to 187 by the end of the year. As a further development of the Jesus Shaped People programme, which we found so inspiring, (https://www.jesusshapedpeople.net/) a five-week teaching programme entitled ‘Parables For Baildon’ again took place in the New Year, studying the relevance of the Parables in relation to living today. A ‘Family Focus’ leaflet, updated seasonally, was produced listing all activities and events available at Baildon Methodist Church for children and young families. Events during the year included a harvest supper and entertainment, a Gilbert & Sullivan evening, a comedy night, a Church Anniversary social, Action For Children Christmas Fayre and concerts by Village Voices, Aire Valley Male Voice choir and Woodhouse Grove School. In the autumn, the Church hosted a visit by a group of young Palestinian dan
