It was wonderful to have so many of us together from across our churches at the Mersey Synod Meeting. The theme of this Synod meeting continued Living Faith, which is the Synod theme for the next two years. Mersey Synod Moderator, Revd Geoff Felton, said: “A big thank you to everyone who has made this Synod happen, to our hosts at Wilmslow and to all those who have turned up and been a part of the meeting. I pray we may fix our eyes on Christ and live our faith beyond the walls of our churches.”

It was wonderful to have so many of us together from across our churches at the Mersey Synod Meeting. The theme of this Synod meeting was Living Faith, which is the start of the new Synod theme for the next two years. 

The next meeting of our Mersey Synod is Saturday 12th October 2024 at Allerton United Reformed Church, Mather Ave, Allerton L18 7HD

Booking is essential and anyone can attend (although only members can vote). We shall gather as leaders of the churches so that under the guidance of the Holy Spirit we may discern the mind of Christ for the future and to give thanks for work that has been completed since we last met.  

Our theme at the March Synod Meeting, held at Trinity URC Wigan, was ‘Talking Faith, Talking Creation’ and we looked at how faith informs our approach and attitude to the environment. We also celebrated the news that URC Mersey Synod has achieved both the Bronze Eco Synod Award and the Bronze Eco Church Award Certificate.
