Church Party

You are all welcome to the GHM International Church Party on Friday 21st March from 7pm. Come and celebrate Nowruz (Persian New Year) and the start of spring. There will be music, food and dancing. Could you bring some food from your home country to share? Or share some of your favourite music? Please sign up at the back of church so that we have an idea of numbers and also if you are able to bring food or music to share with us.

APCM – 11^th May 2025

We have had to change our APCM date this year. It is now going to be held on May 11^th – which is a Breakfast Church. It will be a little longer than usual but we hope to have our Breakfast, the service and our Annual Meeting all at once!

City of Culture – a Letter to the Future

Bradford 2025 is creating an installation in Salts Mill called Letters to the Future

The idea is that we all send a wish, a poem, a song, a memory, an essay, a story, a sense, a description, a history, a list, a book to the future – there are details in this document Letters to the Future and more of an idea in this video that features St Barnabas School – and someone we know! Please get involved and submit ideas on the website
