Volunteers from the St Helens URC network of churches came together on Tuesday 29th October to run a half term fun day for primary age children. Based at Ormskirk Street URC and led by Steven Mitchell, Synod Children and Youth Development Officer (CYDO), children and adults had a fun packed day.

Newtown URC recently welcomed Year 4 pupils from Queen’s Park C.E/U.R.C Primary School for its Experience Pentecost event. Church members from Newtown URC and Ormskirk Street, along with Mersey Synod staff, hosted six sessions with interactive activities and storytelling.

Ormskirk Street recently hosted two Year 2 classes from Queen's Park CE/URC Primary School, as they learned about Easter and the events of Holy Week.

Ian Thomas, a Church Elder in charge of Experiencing Easter at Ormskirk Street talks us through the event and its importance to the church and school community.

Harvest is an important time to remember God as creator and be thankful for the good things He provides. There are many celebrations across our churches, bringing communities together and supporting those in need. Here are some highlights from across the Mersey Synod.
