A New Year Message

First question here is who was St Wilfrid? Wikipedia tells us Wilfrid (c 633 – 709 or 710) was an English bishop and saint. Born a Northumbrian noble, he entered religious life as a teenager and studied at Lindisfarne, at Canterbury, in Francia, and at Rome; he returned to Northumbria in about 660, and became the abbot of a newly founded monastery at Ripon.

Mothers' Union met on 5 January at St Wilfrid’s, to share fellowship, support one another in friendship and develop our faith. The talk this month was on Modern-Day slavery

St Wilfrid’s Church Hall is now registered as a Warm Welcome Space. It will be open every Thursday from 1-3pm for free drinks, biscuits and some company. 

The Schools Prayer Network (SPN) began when Michael Philip, a peripatetic music teacher, saw the power of prayer in school first hand. After experiencing vandalism at a school, one of the children in the Christian Union decided to pray about it. The vandalism stopped almost straight away. Michael felt that if prayer had this effect in one school, it could have similar effects in other schools.
