I can never remember)! \nThere are a large number of cliches\, like the ones above\, about children and young people and the Church. Some we can read and they simply make us smirk or roll our eyes\, but others can ignite a more emotive response; a more passionate response. \nWe want to welcome children and young people into all aspects of the life and business and the Yorkshire Synod of the URC. Because we know that young people and children are the most dynamic\, richest and most beautiful part of the Church. \nWe are passionate. \nIf you are too\, join us on Saturday 19 March at Xscape Yorkshire\, Castleford (easily accessible by car and train). Lunch and refreshments are provided. After lunch we will take part in some adventure activities (most likely trampolining and rock climbing). \nTo book please confirm with Megan Tillbrook by texting or ringing 07522 220213 or emailing wilderness@urcyorkshire.org.uk.
