Many of our churches are entering the 20th Century with zeal and some are fearlessly introducing digital technology to their sacred spaces. If you feel this is a good thing or a bad thing you are welcome to send a comment either by email ctilkley@gmail.com or Facebook
You don’t have to believe in God to ask for prayer. We’ll pray for you.
24/7 Prayer for Wharfedale is an initiative to pray for people whatever their need and to pray for God’s blessing on the valley.
Your prayer request will be read by a small group of prayers only. They are members of the established Christian churches, who are committed to pray for Wharfedale and its people.
Requests can be made by filling in the form on this link
If you are 16 – 19 you are invited to join The Big Questions team for another session this Sunday the 23rd of October. Discussion starts at 11am.
