Today is the glorious feast day of Pentecost, a day to be celebrated! This is the day when we celebrate the Christian church being birthed into the world, and sent out to preach, teach and serve all the nations.

Today our focus is on prayer: Jesus's prayers for us, his followers, and our prayers for others. The service includes a homily from Revd Mark Poole and the music video 'We seek your Kingdom' from LICC and 'Thy Kingdom Come'

Derwent Deanery Ascension Day Service

A service to mark the start of Christian Aid Week

Today we explore the Christian journey.

Our service this week is one of Holy Communion. Do participate in the act of worship in whatever way feels right to you. If this means having bread and wine as part of this, then we would encourage you to do so. In this service, the mystery of the sacrament meets the mystery of the internet, so there is plenty of room for the work of the Holy Spirit.

A very warm welcome to you from us all here in the Benefice Rural East York. This Sunday 18th April we continue to reflect on the mystery and glory of Christ's resurrection.

A very happy Easter to you all!

We wish you a holy Holy Saturday as we anticipate celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ in the coming hours. Our final Holy Week reflection is given by The Revd Keith Albans.

We hope you are able to give a little time today to the drama and mystery of Good Friday. Today's reflection is by Revd Canon Terry Joyce.
