York School of Ministry Short Taster Course

York School of Ministry Short Taster Course

starts 26 August!

We are keen at York School of Ministry to make our courses accessible to all and as part of this vision we are offering a free online course to build confidence in those considering studying as part of their discipleship or vocational journeys. 

This 3 week course explores a different gospel each week and helps students to develop their study skills including effective note-taking, learning how to summarise their reading and writing down their own ideas using evidence to back these up.

View the YSOM Short Taster Course poster pictured as a downloadable pdf. 

Read the August issue of The Grapevine

The August 2020 issue of The Grapevine is now online.

Prayer for you or a loved one

Would you like someone to pray for you or a loved one?

Each week in our intercessions at Church we pray for those who are sick, including those from our parishes who are in hospital, or undergoing treatment.

We now have a small group of people who will pray for you or a loved one.
They will also be prayed for in the relevant Church at Morning Prayer each week.

If you, or a loved one would like prayer, please contact Judith Hewitt, 488331, judithmhewitt@btinternet.com
If you want prayer for someone else, please would you ask their permission, as we do when praying for someone in Church.

Initially you will be prayed for four weeks, but can be prayed for again.

The group praying will only have a first name, but Nick, Mark (our curate) and myself will have a surname and the reason for prayer.
