Young Adults Coffee Morning
TBCIt all started just before lockdown in 2020. A group of young adults from across the Yorkshire Synod met in Huddersfield to drink coffee (or tea, or hot chocolate), to build friendships and to read the Bible together. Throughout lockdown, we met for a time using zoom and once we felt it safe to do so we began to meet again each month in a different town or city across Yorkshire to share fellowship together again. Below are the up and coming dates for ‘Coffee Mornings Together’: Saturday 18 June, York Saturday 30 July, Sheffield Saturday 10 September, Bradford Saturday 08 October, Synod Venue TBC Saturday 05 November, Huddersfield Saturday 10 December, York If you consider yourself to be a ‘young adult’ (minimum age 17 years) and you are searching for a place to meet others, build friendship and to talk about faith, please do come along and join us. Venues decided closer to the date. Please contact Megan Tillbrook 07522 220213. We are also running a weekend retreat for Young Adults. Click here for more information.
What is mission?
Online!Join our monthly conversation exploring different aspects of mission. Join us if you have a passion, if you have questions, if you are just curious, or if you don't really think it is for you! We will spend an hour together, talking, thinking and praying about mission. And over the coming months we will discover more of where God might be leading us, as individuals, churches, and as a synod. Don’t worry if you can’t make it each month, each time is a one-off. Get in touch for the zoom details and pass them on, and then come along next time. Contact Jon Steel to join in.
