We’re very pleased that our Parent & Toddler group will be re-opening on Friday 11th June (9.30-11.00 a.m.) We will have a maximum capacity of 20 adults to enable social distancing between adults; each adult can bring children under 5. We will be operating a pre-booking system to monitor numbers and to ensure all Government guidance is followed, so please contact Julie on 07729 421405 to book your place(s).
Don’t forget also our ‘Churches Together’ prayer meeting at our building (and on Facebook live) on Wednesday 19th May at 10.45 a.m. and our Pentecost dove distribution on Saturday 22nd May at 10 a.m.
We’re also pleased to be taking part in the ‘Churches Together’ Pentecost Trail on Wednesday 2nd June at the Railway Embankment site (opposite the Texaco garage). This is an opportunity to book in for a 45 minutes’ session of crafts and activities on the theme of Pentecost at a lovely outdoor site developed by local residents on what used to be the railway site for the mine. For years a fly-tipping eyesore, this site is now a beautiful, serene outdoor community space and we are looking forward to our first in-person fun day for over a year. You’ll need to book your time slot to join us, and every family will get a lovely goody bag of craft activities and fruit snacks to take home.
Finally, we’ll also be involved in the Dearne Community Arts’ Festival (taking place in Goldthorpe on Saturday 25th September) and are pleased that this will involve a community art project on the same Railway Embankment site which will take place in early July. Working with artist Lydia Caprani, local residents and school-children will be painting the brick wall down to the site and we are grateful to Lloyd’s Stores in Thurnscoe for their donation of paint and equipment for this project.
