Brough had a celebration meal for more than 90 people in the church on the Friday evening (6th June 2008) to which former ministers were invited, and a good number came.  On Saturday we had Open Church and refreshments all day.  There were displays about the activities of the church community and a beautiful display of flowers.  Marie Routledge (the organist) played 50 hymns on the organ and an impromptu choir formed and sang along with her.  On Saturday evening we had a prayer and praise and finished the weekend off with a service of celebration and commitment to the next 50 years on the Sunday morning.

Skidby Soup Lunches

Take place each month on the second Friday from 11:30-1:30 and raise money for local and international charities.

Run by our enthusiastic and hardworking members, each month we have a selection of up to six soups, home made bread and cakes.

It is a very popular event and draws in 40-70 people each time we run, we even have to spill over into the Sunday school room at times. Watch for the signs on the church and please feel free to join us.

Cottingham Cleanup Day

As part of our Hope 08 activities in the year, Cottingham Churches Together which consists of six churches of different denominations teamed up to cleanup the village. We split into three teams, two taking on overgrown snickets, and one tackling some of the graffiti on the public buildings. We were assisted on the day by local councillors, special police officers and the Neighbourhood action team coordinator.
