As well as our Sunday Services, every week at 11am, there are other groups which meet regularly:
A monthly "Sparklers Children's Programme takes place on the 2nd Sunday of each month, excluding August. Children will be in the service until their story, and will then go into the Vestry with leaders for their own activities.
Bright Lights is an intergenerational worship session, which takes place four times in the year. The next session will be on 22nd September 2019.
More details will appear later in the York Unitarian. Sessions involve stories, nature, craft, spirituality, music, humanity, fun, community, and creativity.
The chalice candle was made at a Bright Lights session.
