For your prayers this week

  • Almighty God, from whom all thoughts of truth and peace proceed: kindle, we pray, in the hearts of all, the true love of peace and guide with your pure and peaceable wisdom those who take counsel for the nations of the earth that in tranquillity your kingdom may go forward, till the earth is filled with the knowledge of your love.
  • For our Diocesan Link in Sudan and for The Holy Land: God of peace and compassion, we pray for all impacted by the conflicts in Gaza and Sudan, for all who are mourning, for all who are fearful, today, and for what may lie ahead, for all traumatised and re-traumatised by what they have experienced.
    Enable us to stand in solidarity with people of peace, may your Spirit bring peace and healing to your troubled world. Amen.
  • In Cross Hills we pray for all who live or work on Station Grove, Midland Mills Industrial Estate, Willow Garth Avenue, Skipton Road, & Riparian Way.
  • We pray for all involved in the stories we have seen or heard on the news this week.
  • We pray for all who are ill, in body mind or spirit.
  • We pray for all who have died, and for their bereaved family and friends.
And our prayer for growth:

God of Mission,
who alone brings growth to your Church,
Send your Holy Spirit to give
Vision to our planning,
Wisdom to our actions,
And power to our witness.
Help your church to grow in numbers,
In spiritual commitment to you,,
And in service to our local community,
Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Good Friday Concert - Bach's Mass in B Minor

Ben Crick and Skipton Camerata join forces with the Leodis Consort to perform Bach's late choral masterpiece.
Completed a year before his death, Bach's great Mass in B minor is one of the pinnacles of human artistic achievement. Although conceived for the church, the B minor Mass expresses a full range of feelings conveying profound humanity whatever one's beliefs.
For this performance Ben Crick and Skipton Camerata join forces with the Leodis Consort, a Leeds-based choir dedicated to delivering high-quality, historically informed performances that showcase the beauty and richness of early music.
29th March 7pm at Skipton Town Hall. Tickets available from:
