We celebrated bonfire night with a firework display and enjoyed parkin and toffee apples. Our pastor Paul gave a short gospel talk around the bonfire.
A relaxing day of fellowship around tasty food and in lovely surroundings was had by all on this years church awayday. Click the images below to see what we got up to…
Once more this year the weather was brilliant as we took over Blackgates school field for the family fun day. Hundreds of people came to enjoy the various activities, have a bite to eat and just chill out. This year there was a climbing wall for the more active adrenalin seekers which seemed to go down well. Being the year of the world cup we had our very own penalty shootout competition which was great fun. In the full heat of the sun the wet sponge throwing seemed to go down well. There were also the usual races in the arena; egg and spoon, sack, running, and then the tug-of-war. All in all a great day out at no charge with Hope church seeking to bless the local community.

Two of our students shared their stories of coming to a personal faith in Jesus Christ and were baptised as a public sign of their dying to self and being raised to new life in him.
We showed this film in February 2018
We were led in our carol singing by the Garforth Jubilee Brass Band.
On 10th Dec we were entertained by the 4Front Theatre Company with their Christmas Castaways pantomime. Here are a few photos of the event.
The rain stayed away (mostly) for an enjoyable evening sitting round the bonfire munching pie & peas with good company, watching the aerial display.
We greatly enjoyed the sundae's after the service last Sunday. Lots of different toppings to go on our ice cream, even bubblegum flavour sauce!
This was something for the local community to enjoy and once again people came out in their hundreds and had a great time. The weather turned out to be fantastic with blue skies and warm sun all day. Have a look at the pictures to see something of the event. Maybe try to spot yourself if you came along!
