Harvest is a joyful time in the church year when we come together to celebrate God’s goodness and provision. It’s a moment to pause, reflect on the many blessings in our lives, and to offer our thanks. Traditionally, we bring gifts of food and produce to share with others, reminding us that everything we have comes from God and that we are called to care for those in need. These gifts are then shared with local charities and food banks, extending the blessing beyond our church walls.

If you’ve never been to a Harvest service before, expect a warm welcome, familiar hymns of praise, and a wonderful sense of community. It’s a family-friendly occasion where people of all ages join together in thanksgiving.

Bessingham provides a beautiful and fitting setting for our Harvest service, where the gathering of friends, neighbours and newcomers makes the celebration even more special. Whether you come with gifts to share, or simply with a heart ready to give thanks, you will be part of a meaningful act of worship and gratitude
