Trinity Sunday in the Deanery

All the parishes/benefices in the Deanery will have services to celebrate Trinity Sunday (15th June). This is the day on which we celebrate the threefold nature of God, and so it would be apt if I had a trinity of events to share with you. In fact there are many more than three services taking place on Sunday throughout the Deanery – please check the website or Facebook page for your local church to see what is happening there!

Other events happening this weekend:

Art Exhibition: May 30th – 28th June at Yarm Parish Church. Free entry, the exhibition will be open to the public on Thursdays Fridays and Saturdays between 9.30 am-12.30pm. The Cafe will also be open.

Kirklevington’s new organ will hopefully be fully installed by the end of June and details of a celebratory recital by Harry Brown will follow.
