Fairtrade - a thank you

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported the Festive Fairtrade Fair at BoltonMethodist Church on 22^nd November. We made £549.40 in Fairtrade sales and took £52.15 in donations for Traidcraft Exchange.

The next event planned is a Fairtrade Big Brew to take place on Saturday 28^th February in the morning at Thackley Methodist Church. This will coincide with Fairtrade Fortnight, which takes place from 23^rd February to 8^th March. The message for the 2015 campaign will be, “Choose Products that Change Lives” – to celebrate the power of everyday choices by telling the other half of a product’s story – the producer’s – to show the difference Fairtrade makes. This is a difference that I saw first-hand on my recent trip to Ghana, where I met cocoa farmers, palm oil producers and banana farmers. Fairtrade really does make a difference!

Biblefresh Festival 11 June 2011 - bookings now open

Bradford North and South Circuits invite you to their city-wide Biblefresh Festival Saturday 11 June 2011 Full details and booking form

Andrew to stay!

We are delighted to report that the Circuit Meeting, on 16 September, voted unanimously to appoint Rev Andrew Taylor as a full-time member of the Bradford North ministerial team, from 1 September 2015 for a period of 5 years. This ends the uncertainty over the future staffing of the circuit, following the unsuccessful search for a minister from the United Reformed Church. Andrew has been working with the team in a temporary, reduced-hours, capacity over the past 12 months and his ministry has been greatly appreciated. The unanimous vote by the Circuit Meeting is a ringing endorsement of the way all our churches feel about Andrew.
