This is a phase we go through between the retirement of Rev Roy and the appointment of a new vicar. A parish profile has been written in the hope that we can attract interest in our group of churches. It is not a full time position so it may not be a position that we can fill quickly. In the interim you may well see more lay led services and fewer services that have a communion although at least one communion service will be held in a church within the parish each Sunday. Come and say good bye to Roy and Mary at the special farewell Parish service at 10.00am Sunday 30th July in Tockwith Church. Roy came into our midst during difficult times as we made the transition to become part of the Parish of Marston Moor. With five churches to oversee it is difficult to comprehend how he did it on 3½ days a week. We all know he did more and we should be very grateful for that. After nine years serving the five churches in our Parish, taking numerous services, weddings, baptisms and funerals, as well as drinking countless cups of tea whilst visiting, talking and meeting the variety of needs of all in our community he well deserves his retirement. We should also not forget the support that Mary has given Roy. With the demands of the Parish at times it must have been very difficult to sustain marital harmony. Both Roy and Mary have a strong faith and their time with us has proved that we have a sustainable Parish. We wish them both well in retirement. This month we also bid farewell to the school caretaker John Wardle who has done so many things µbehind the scenes¶ from delivering this magazine to cleaning the church. Come along to the Forge behind the Spotted Ox at 8pm Saturday 22nd July to give him a good send off. The inaugural Epiphany Café on the 22nd June attracted quite a lot of interest. This was an afternoon for people to come along and have a chat over a cup of coffee or tea. Future cafés will be held on the third Thursday of the month. We promise there will be QR µSUHDFKLQJ¶ and anyone can come along even if you have no religious belief. It might be that if this gets established that we can get musicians or singers to provide entertainment during some of the afternoons. This is an exciting new venture and thank you to Jenny Tham for agreeing to organise the first one. Please contact Jenny 01423 359794 if you think you can help at the café and perhaps do some baking. Remember this is your church, if you want it to be a living, thriving community in the years to come then you need to support it. :HUH\RXEDSWLVHGRUPDUULHGLQWKHFKXUFK"+DYH\RXFHOHEUDWHGDORYHGRQH¶VOLIH" Do you know that one day you will need the services of the Church?
