What's on

Sharing Space in Glaisdale

Occuring
Tuesday 02 April 2024, Tuesday 16 April 2024, Tuesday 30 April 2024 Tuesday at for 2 hours, 30 mins
Venue
St Thomas Glaisdale
Address
Glaisdale Lane, just off Carr Lane Glaisdale, YO21 2PL, United Kingdom

Something a little different this week. We want to explore the importance of place in faith. We're meeting at St Thomas' and we'll have some refreshments first. Then we'll spend some time individually, absorbing and exploring the beautiful place, in the building and in the churchyard (if the weather is good). We'll then compare our thoughts and see where the discussion takes us. All welcome!

The language used by the church and occasionally by us all, to discuss faith, religion or belief can often be confusing, misinterpreted and for some alienating. The purpose of this small group will be to create a space where language and concepts can be explored safely, and greater insight developed. The group will meet initially every two weeks and will be open to all, of faith and no faith. A space to listen, share and question.

This is one of a series of new and exciting experiments we are running this autumn and winter: do come along and experience something a little different.

Please contact Reverend Anthony for further information: [email protected] or 01947 899843.

Safeguarding

Our Benefice (comprising the parishes of Glaisdale and Lealholm, Egton, Grosmont and Goathland) is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officers (PSOs). Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSOs.

If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact one of our PSOs, via the 'Safeguarding in our Benefice' page at the link below.

If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
