AGM 2026 report
The AGM was held as part of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity service on 22nd January in St James' Church, part of which was a very informative talk by George Skalski on the aims and achievement of the St Vincent de Paul charity, which has a shop in our town. The retiring Chairperson, Capt.Yvonne West, gave a report summarising the surprising number of activities we had accomplished over the past year, which you can read here. At the election of officers, Yvonne was thanked for her seven years of service in the role as Chairperson and presented with tokens of our appreciation for all her hard work and leadership. The new chairperson is Heather Shipman. The remaining officers were re-elected: Joyce Harrison (Secretary) and Tony Ryan (Treasurer).
World Day of Prayer 2:00pm, Friday, 6th March at St Joseph's Church, Wetherby Everyone - female and male - is warmly invited to this service, which has been prepared by women in Nigeria. It reflects on the theme, "I will give you rest." and speaks to our need for peace and solace, drawing on their faith and experiences in a world filled with struggles and anxieties. Do come and join us as the wave of prayer sweep round the world. Refreshments will be served afterwards. Community Prayers 9:00am on Wednesday, March 4th, 2026 Everyone is invited to join us in prayer for about 45 minutes to lift up to the Lord our community and its people, churches, businesses, activities. And no doubt we shall be praying for other things that are on our hearts, too. Lent Lecture 2026

Good Friday United Walk of Witness 10:50am, 3rd April, starting at Westgate Car Park Our annual United Walk of Witness is open to everyone, including children accompanied by their parents or carers. It's a time when we remember the sacrifice that our Saviour Jesus made on the cross to redeem all who come to him in faith from the consequences of their sins. This is a great opportunity to demonstrate that the Church is alive and well, and that Jesus has many followers in our town and the surrounding area. We begin together with prayers and hymns at 11:00am, then walk quietly to the Town Hall steps for more reflections; finally, we walk to Bridgefoot Gardens to erect a wooden cross which will remain as a witness to God's love and compassion for us all. After the Walk, at about 12:15pm, there will be a chance to meet with our fellow Christians over a simple bread-and-soup lunch at St James Church Centre. (For a larger version of the poster, click on the image above right.)
