We have monthly Messy Church at St John’s Church Hall at 4pm on the third Sunday of each month. During the pandemic we have moved online and use the service Zoom. Each session is themed around the church year with stories, music, crafts and activities which is suitable for the whole family to enjoy. We would love you to join us! You’ll need an invitation via email from Canon Sandra. Just email her at sandrabenham@btinternet.com.

Let’s Do Lent!

Let’s do Lent is a set of eight stories, thoughts, challenges and prayers for children’s journey through Lent. We will upload them every Sunday at 11am to our Youtube channel (search Parish of Baildon), and of course they will be available anytime afterwards. We begin on Sunday 21st February and end on Easter Day, 4th April. We will upload and extra session on 2nd April for Good Friday. The full ‘Let’s Do Lent’ booklet can be collected free outside St John’s church but we will upload the pages, week-by-week, here:
