Sunday Worship @ Slingsby Methodist

Join us on a Sunday Morning at 10:30am for our weekly act of worship.

Our services are led by our minister, or local preachers from the Ryedale Methodist circuit.  The service usually lasts around an hour, and includes the singing of hymns, readings from the bible, a reflection on the readings, and led prayers.  Once a month we also share in bread and wine (communion) to which everyone is welcome.

Following the service tea and coffee are served and we take the opportunity to catch up with one another.

Do check the worship plan, as occasionally we meet for United Services with the Parish Church, or our sister Church at Hovingham.
