All services and other activities are suspended until further notice due to the Coronavirus outbreak.
As well as our Sunday Services, every week at 11am, there are other groups which normally meet regularly:
Bright Lights is an intergenerational worship session, which takes place four times in the year. The next session will be announced.
More details will appear later in the York Unitarian. Sessions involve stories, nature, craft, spirituality, music, humanity, fun, community, and creativity.
The Chapel Sparklers group for children which is held once a month during the morning services is taking a temporary break. We hope to offer other provision for families, children and young people so please keep an eye on this page. Let us know what kind of activities your family would like to take part in. There is always a story for all ages within the service.
