Our 3rd Sunday services are aimed especially at families with young children but are open to everyone who is ready for worship that will be relaxed, interactive, thought provoking, practical and just half an hour long.


After our Christingle service on 15th January we are back again at 9.30am on Sunday 19th February - see you there!

BOOKSHELF At HOLY REDEEMER
On the bookshelf this month among the resources to help encourage and challenge you to be 'Building Character' - as part of our Autumn Programme, is Lee Strobel's 'The Case for Christ'.

Strobel is an award-winning journalist at the Chicago Tribune and his book is a gripping attempt to answer the question ‘Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?’

Let's Go! is open to everyone with preschool children and aims to give a time for worship that includes songs, stories and craft activities. Let's Go! meets every Thursday in term time and meets at Holy Redeemer from 10.30am - 11.00am.




Thursday is also our Open Church day when the church is open for prayer, quiet and refreshments from 9.30am - 11.30am, with many of our Let's Goers! enjoying meeting early for coffee etc.

A copy of our Let's go! programme is available on our Downloads page.

Holy Redeemer is continuing with our partnership with the Barbican Bookshop in York after its takeover by the Australian Christian Retailer 'Koorong'.

Whether it's help with prayer, to inderstand some of the tricky issues of our times, a Bible or books for Children - then the Barbican Bookshop can help you to find what you need.

You can find out more about the Barbican Bookshop (including opening times and a location map) and the resources available through Wesley Owen at http://www.wesleyowen.com

Rob Parsons has written this great book that can help everyone faced with caring for a teenger explore ways of being a blessing to them.

There is a lot of practical advice here and in every chapter you will I am sure find something that will help and encourage you as you look to help the teenager in your life to make the difficult transition from childhood into adulthood.

We keep a prayer book open at the church – if you would like a member of our prayer team to pray for you, someone you know or for an issue that is important to you in the week ahead please email your request using this contact form.

At 6.30pm on the first Sunday of each month, we set aside a time when everyone is encouraged to join together to pray for our life together, our ministry in the parish, and for the needs we see in the world around us.
