Thornhill Parish Church

Serving the local community

 

Meetings of the Parochial Church Council are held every other month on the third Monday at church

In between meetings a series of sub groups meet to plan our activities and mission

  • Outreach Group-Chair  Brian Pearson - charged with organising many of our events and planning the non -worship use of our building.It is also responsible for managing our various rebuilding projects.
  • G Wizz at Summer Fair
  •  Missions and Charities Group-Chair Marion Wilson

In this group we aim to promote parish events which highlight the work of missions and charities, by raising awareness and by organising charity fund-raising events and collections as appropriate. We look to help and support local / parish representatives of charitable organisations. We respond to emergency appeals as well as organising ongoing events throughout the year. We support both Christian and secular charities, seeing it as promoting the teaching of Jesus through practical action

       Ministry Group Chair Elaine Wilkes

      This is not simply the clergy organising the services! Thornhill Church is a part of the Wakefield Ministry Scheme and whole-heartedly supports the concept of lay ministry. In this group we seek to work alongside the clergy in furthering the spiritual life of the parish. We are involved in baptism and bereavement visiting and explore ways of taking the church out to people. There is much more to this group than meets the eye. If you are intrigued, then please speak to the Pastoral Lay Minister Elaine Wilkes
