June Connected

This month Revd. Pete Watson reflects on the recent appalling events in Sri Lanka, but also finds hope in the aftermath as Christians and Muslims came together.

Tony Service reports on recent events in the Methodist circuit. As I write this note they are celebrating their anniversary - and I do hope that it is going well.

Rob and Hannah Suekarran introduce themselves, and I review the World Championship FootGolf that was hosted at Scalm Park recently. Mrs Clarke remembers the Parish Walk that took place at the Skylark Centre in Barlow, and Barbara Richardson reports on all things MU.

I report on the recent Ceramic Sale at St Wilfrid’s, and also the St Crux day that raised over £800 for St Francis. Revd. Pete Watson recalls the past year of ministry & mission, and the joys and challenges to look ahead to. And finally I get to print a picture of some big kids on a bouncy castle!

Ceramics Sale Saturday 18th May, 11am-5pm

What? – Sale of original hand-made ceramics.

When? – Saturday 18^th May, 11am-5pm

Where? – St Wilfrid’s Church Hall, Brayton (Behind the church).

In aid of St Wilfrid’s Church tower restoration fund, Selby artist Martin Pearson and Tracey Copestake have produced a range of unique ceramic pieces for sale.  Many of the pieces were produced by pressing clay into surfaces around the church, so, in a way you could own a little piece of this historic building!   

A range of other ceramic forms by Martin will also be on sale.  The ceramics have also been hand-decorated in a range of colours and textures.  The pieces come in a variety of sizes, and with a guide price, so you can donate the amount you feel appropriate.  This is a great opportunity to own an original piece of art work at an affordable price, and to help restore the church tower.

Refreshments will also be available throughout the day.  See you there!
