Volunteers needed for Wrose lunch club

CAN YOU HELP PLEASE?

We run a Lunch Club at Wrose Methodist Church weekly on every Wednesday.   Due to unforeseen circumstances, after Christmas we urgently need a volunteer to cook the meals in our well-appointed kitchen, with the help of other volunteers.   If you are enthusiastic about cooking and love to feed a good number of people, then this might just be what you’re looking for!

The job entails planning menus for each week, buying the ingredients the day before (quantity dependent upon numbers booking a lunch) and cooking a main course and a dessert on the Wednesday morning.  Numbers attending range between 15 and 22.   Lunch is served between 12 noon and 1 p.m.   We are willing to discuss expenses if a volunteer has to travel any distance.  

We also require volunteers to help in the kitchen, and generally with the setting up of the tables, putting out crockery and cutlery, etc. and serving the meals.

If more than one volunteer were to come forward, for either job, then a rota could be organised so that the commitment would only be fortnightly etc. if weekly is too much.   So please don’t hesitate to let us know if you can offer anything at all!

We would be really grateful if you could help us, as we consider the Lunch Club to be an important service to the elderly in Wrose, offering a friendly atmosphere, good quality food at a reasonable price, interesting people to talk to and various activities throughout the year.

If you can see your way clear to volunteering – if only for once a month! – then please contact us - wrose@bradfordnorth.org.uk

Thank you.

Virtual Worship - 3 April 2022

By
A Methodist Way of Life - April 2022 - Praying Daily Service sheet (pdf) Start by listening to ‘Lead me Lord’:  Hello and welcome to the Bradford North worship video for April, the first of 12 services focusing on the commitments contained within the Methodist Way of Life and introduced by Rev David Goodall in last month’s video. My name is Claire Nott: I’m a local preacher on trial in the circuit and one of the lay pastors at Baildon Methodist Church. The anthem you heard at the start was Samuel Wesley’s ‘Lead me Lord’, based on Psalm 5 verse 8. Our call to worship is a selection of other verses taken from the same psalm: I pray to you, O  Lord ; 3      you hear my voice in the morning; at sunrise I offer my prayer [ b ]     and wait for your answer. all who find safety in you will rejoice;     they can always sing for joy. Protect those who love you;     because of you they are truly happy ...

Fairtrade in the circuit

By
A few of us organised a Fair Trade Afternoon Fair at Calverley Methodist Church on Saturday 8 th July.   The local primary school was holding a summer fair in the park that afternoon, so we gained some passing trade as well as regular supporters – a big thank you to those who came along.   We took £322 in fair trade sales and £200 from refreshments and a chocolate cake prize draw. The £200 was sent to Traidcraft’s Summer Appeal, which is supporting people like Asina in Bangladesh.   Asina is 28 and already a widow, and because of this is paid less, respected less and pushed to the margins of society. But she has pride, hope and a determination to learn.   With training and support, Asina could learn how to make use of her own small patch of land, so rather than picking tea for others, she can grow and pick her own.     Now we are moving into Autumn, we inevitably will start looking ahead and so please put the following date in your diary:   S...
