Until further notice access to worshippers* and visitors will only be by the North West door to satisfy security needs. On Sundays, signs and host staff will be in place to inform people that this is the way to enter the Minster. Please support our Minster Police, and our Hosts, as they work to ensure your safety. Please also ensure that you do not leave any bags unattended. *Access for our daily early morning services, including the 8 o’clock on Sundays, and Evensong in the evenings, is by the south door. Groups for children and young people during the 10.00 am service Welcome to all children sharing in our worship today. All children are welcome to join in with the prepared activities. The 5-11s group meets in the Zouche Chapel. Under 5s gather in the Consistory Court and should be accompanied by their parents or carers. To join either group, please follow the cross during the gradual hymn. If there is anything that we need to know about your child, please speak with any of the leaders. When the administration of communion begins please go to the Zouche Chapel to collect your child so that they can share in this part of the service. Please ask a steward if you do not know where to find the Zouche Chapel and someone will show you the way. Coffee after the 10.00 am Eucharist There will be no coffee after the 10.00 am Eucharist this week, but normal caffeine levels will return next week, after the 10.00 am Eucharist. Next week, those refreshments will be held in the north transept. Contactless giving At next Sunday’s 10.00 am Eucharist, as part of our move towards digital giving, you will be able to give by card using a GoodPlate. The GoodPlate enables people to give at a church service by coins, notes, card or phone. The plate has a card reader embedded within it. Frequently people do not carry cash, and so this collecting plate enables them to give contactlessly as part of the offertory. The plates will be available on entry and at the end of the service. This service is being used to showcase and demonstrate the technology, after the service we will be evaluating its performance with a view to future use. Unfortunately at the moment we are unable to gift aid this type of giving and so for UK taxpayers who are able, we still encourage you to use the gift aid envelope. If you have any feedback on the plate please contact Neil Sanderson at [email protected] RnR meets at the Lamb and Lion from 7.30 pm on the following dates: 02, 16 and 30 July, to wander through Luke’s Gospel over a glass of something. Residentiary Canon appointments. The search has begun to find a new Canon Precentor (to replace Canon Peter, who leaves in September) and a Canon Missioner. Interviews are being held in York between 8 and 12 July. Please hold in your prayers those who are responsible for making these appointments and all the candidates. Request for materials - Summer in Dean’s Park: Look Up! 27 July – 1 Sept. A range of free family activities will take place in Dean’s Park this summer holidays designed to make young explorers look up! Families will be able to enjoy a Heavens’ observation den, add a ribbon with a thought, prayer or wish to the ‘give and take tree’ or spend time spotting Mr and Mrs Minster, the cathedral’s resident Peregrine Falcons. Volunteers from the Minster community are busy knitting and felting small animals which will be left at locations around the park for families to discover and take home as a memento from their visit. If anyone would be interested in helping create the animals, which are up to 4 inches tall and range from ladybirds and bees to hippos and whales, please contact Ann Smith at [email protected]. The Learning Team is also looking for donations to support the activities including; leftover lengths of ribbon, leftover balls of double-knitting wool, old plastic plant pots (intact please, 10cm minimum diameter), large plastic milk and pop bottles (with tops if possible), kitchen roll tubes and newspapers. They would also appreciate donations of second-hand books – any topic and for any age range - as part of a free book exchange which will run throughout the summer. Donations can be left in boxes in the Minster staff room and at the receptions at Church House, St William’s College and the Old Palace. The activities are part of a range of family events at the Minster this summer including craft activities in the Chapter House (7, 14 & 21 Aug) and open air cinema with Luna Cinema (27-29 Aug).

Name Change for Feminine Hygiene Kit Workshops We are withdrawing from under the umbrella Days for Girls International, and are changing our name to Yorkits. This is because we differ in our approach from DfG, and do not use unnecessary plastic in our kit-making, and we believe in the self-help principle. We will continue to make kits in workshops throughout the year, and to run the annual workshop in the Minster in March under our new name. For any further information please contact me at [email protected] Issy Sanderson,Workshop Coordinator, Rotary York Ainsty.
