Pentecost in the Park (Lister Park)

‘Pentecost in the Park’ was organised by the Girlington, Heaton & Manningham Council of Churches and took place on Sunday 15 May.

It was a wonderful event and time of worship to be involved in. Hymn singing was led by the Salvation Army Band and the drama of Pentecost was shown by all the children present waving flags of 30+ nations and tongues and flames of the Holy Spirit.

The Rt Rev Dr Toby Howarth, the Bishop of Bradford, gave a magnificent sermon which emphasised the number of Christians from all nations in Bradford. As multiple nations were named, people were asked to shout out. The Lord’s Prayer was said in at least 20 languages. As happened at Pentecost, regardless of where we come from, we all speak in one voice of the love of Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.

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.
