Come along to say hello and get yourselves comfortable with how synod will work this October! Feel free to ask any questions you may have, either about the practicalities of meeting on Zoom, or in-person. There'll be plenty of people on hand to help out! Bring a brew, see you there!
also After all the restrictions of the past year we are really pleased to be able to bring you the synod Youth Weekend again 1st - 3rd Oct at Kingswood Activity Centre, Dearne Valley. Last year was particularly hard on young people, so we are glad to be able to offer a residential weekend to socialise, have fun and join in all sorts of activities with friends. There will also be time for young people to try praying and to look at the Bible together in a way that will be completely accessible if you don't have any faith or church experience. The cost of the weekend is only £25 per person. Leaders from URC groups will be welcome to come with any young people from their churches too. Please get in touch if you would like to join us. You can download an information letter and booking form. You can also download the poster below to distribute. Please do get in touch if you have any questions: wilderness@urcyorkshire.org.uk
