Coasting around the shores of Britain
The next fundraising event by Hubberholme Church for the parish will be on Friday, October 25, in Buckden Village Institute: “Just Coasting – Our Walk around the Coast of Britain”.
This is an illustrated talk by Cliff and Jill Gosden with supper included. They will be picking out the highlights (and a few lowlights!) of their walk to give a flavour of their experiences of walking the whole of the British coastline.
Cliff and Jill live at Thoralby and attend services at Hubberholme Church. Jill designed the beautiful notelets on sale in Hubberholme Church and Cliff arranged printing. Before the talk there will be a pie-and-pea supper with vegetarian option followed by tea/coffee and biscuits.

Exciting news for Parish
We have recently heard that Sally and Ian Smith, from Arncliffe, have now both been approved for training as Licensed Lay Ministers/Readers (LLM) following selection interviews.
This is very exciting news, with clear benefits for the worship life of the Parish, and we wish Sally and Ian all the best as they embark on this journey.

Bishop makes her first visit to one of our Churches

The Bishop of Ripon, the Right Rev Anna Eltringham, has paid her first visit to one of the Churches in our Parish.
The Bishop, who took up her post in the summer of last year, was at St Michael and All Angels Church, Hubberholme, to conduct a memorial service for the late Tom Priestley on Monday, April 22.
Mr Priestley was an Oscar-nominated film editor and the only son of author and broadcaster JB Priestley, whose links to Hubberholme are celebrated in the Church. Tom Priestley died on December 25, 2023, and a funeral service has already been held for him in the south of England. The memorial service was partly intended to allow relatives in the north of England to pay their respects to him.
The Bishop, who was invited to attend the service by Mr Priestley's family, has been in our Parish previously for an event at Scargill House near Kettlewell, but this was the first time she had attended a service or event in one of our Churches. We are looking forward to seeing her again soon.
