It has been specially written for “ Hebden Royd Churches Together ” that explores the music that has touched our lives and encouraged us on our Christian journey. It sounds like a fascinating topic for discussions. Do try to take part and learn from our sisters and brothers in Christ. People who have participated have found great benefit from these groups. There are a range of times and locations to suit most requirements. Please sign the list at the back of church for days and times that suit you . Kay Pierce

Most of the group are preparing for their exams over the coming months and the time is right to end this phase. Leaders would like to thank them for the fun and efforts that they have made over this time. We have seen them mature into fine young people. Thank you also for the ventures that they have taken part in on behalf of our parish eg Liturgical hangings, Movie Quiz night etc. We will begin a new phase with a younger cohort after Easter.
