Poppy Field for Remembrance

Poppies.

Ladies from St Andrew’s helped to create 1,700 textile poppies, each one representing a soldier of the Bradford Pals who died within one hour of joining the fighting in the First World War. A display of the poppies has been created in the Industrial Museum, Moorside Road which also contains emories, from our ladies, of how their lives were affected by the war.

It is a very moving exhibition, which will be on display at the museum until June 2015, when it will be moved to Bolling Hall.

We recommend you visit the museum to see the display.

Calverley's Young Potters

The children of the Charlie Wesley Craft and Cooking Club, and a couple of Dads too, turned their hand to pottery, when we created the animals that went into the Ark. The figures were air-dried then fired to bisque, and then they were painted and glazed and re-fired. How do you like the results? Charlie Wesley Craft and Cooking Club at Calverley Methodist Church has developed into a group of 3 to 8 year olds (and mums and dads too) who meet on the first Saturday of the month and cook and craft stories from the Bible.

Courage, Cost and Hope

You may have seen in the press, recently, references to the Methodist Church’s report on the Past Cases Review of Safeguarding concerns in the church over the last 50 years, a report entitled “ Courage, Cost and Hope ”. The report contains many recommendations and learning from its findings will feed into church life over the next months and years (including our Creating Safer Space training). In the meantime, one obvious response is to ensure in each church, that we are doing all that we are required to do under current safeguarding guidance . Rev Nick on behalf of ministerial team
