Spirituality @ bradfordnorth

Welcome to our first Spirituality page in the Link, where we will keep you up to date with various events and resources to help you explore and deepen your faith.

Connecting to God

Earthenware goblet holding a candle.
Some of us have found connecting to God more difficult, as our usual patterns of worship have been taken away. To help us all cope, we are posting or emailing prayer and worship materials out each week, and some of us have been enjoying the freedom of being able to go back to these later in the week, and even sharing them with others. What you may not be so aware of is what’s available on the Bradford North Website and elsewhere.

The Bradford North Website

Rev Christine Crabtree, with the help of Roy Lorrain-Smith, Jackie Marshall and others, have been building up a wealth of material on our Circuit website www.bradfordnorth.org.uk/ under the headings of Prayer and Spirituality. You can find Prayer on Thursdays videos, audio and written meditations and stories, and Quiet Day materials developed for use at home if you have an hour or longer. If you don’t have a computer but are interested in some of the written material, please phone me and we will arrange to print and post it to you.

You can also phone The Methodist Church for a prayer or message:
  • Listen to a prayer: 0808 281 2514
  • Listen to a pastoral message from the President and Vice- President: 0808 281 2695
  • Listen to our Podcast: 0808 281 2478
These phone lines are updated every Thursday.

When you search for me, you will find me; if you seek me with all your heart.
(Jeremiah 29:13, New Revised Standard Version)

HOPE Together & HOPE Revolution

Dear friends, You are personally invited to attend an exciting evening at  Bradford Academy  that we hope will bring people together from Bradford and Leeds to see how further  Unity, Prayerful Worship and Missional Transformation  can develop between the two cities. Back in July 2012, we saw over 50 young people, 12 leaders and several churches from across Bradford and Leeds join together in a 2 day pilot mission. We partnered with a local church in Bradford to share and witness to Christ's love in word and deed. In addition to this, we included young people in the conversation of ways in which to help connect both cities in the future. There are many people interested in exploring the potential of developing something on a larger scale, culminating in a week of mission across the two cities in 2014.   Your attendances and input will help shape the way forward: We would like to invite you to an exciting evening of information about HOPE Together and the y...
