Order of service, readings, sermon & prayers for today:
This Sunday (7th February) we had our main service on Zoom at 10am. This included listening to some music, and a congregational hymn to join in with from our own homes as well as the usual prayers, readings and talk.
The order of service is the usual one for the Service of the Word, which is available here: Service of the Word 2021
A recording is now available below (excluding the chat beforehand and afterwards) It is, of course, not quite so smooth as some of the recorded services you have seen – but perhaps it is more like a “real” service for all that? We hope that seeing it, and some of your friends and neighbours engaged in our worship, will encourage more of us to be part of these live zoom services as we go forward.
The link below is for a short Candlemas service hosted from the Candlemas window at St James’ Church, with music, prayers and the blessing of candles. You are encouraged to watch this at any point this weekend or on the 2nd February, which is when Candlemas officially falls.
Our main service for this weekend will be by Zoom at 6pm on Sunday which will be followed by coffee and chat for those who wish to stay. Please bring any candles you wish to be blessed to this service. Please contact Rev Karen if you would like the login details.
As is traditional, this Sunday’s service is a joint Covenant Service with our friends from Boroughbridge Methodist Church. Do join us in praying for unity between Christians as we work together to share God’s love with the world.
Order of Service: Covenant_Service_24Jan
Today’s service is a live all-age service via Zoom, starting at 9.30am. Contact Rev Karen for the link!
If you prefer, you can follow the order of service, readings and sermon by yourself.

Our live All Age worship for Epiphany was at 10am at St Andrews today, but those of you who could not attend might still find our activity helpful as we begin a new year, so we have made a short video at home to allow you to reflect at your own time on the idea of finding balance as God calls us on into the New Year.
The home-spun videos (okay, church-spun videos for people saying their prayers at home) continues, with our Epiphany Service, containing a choir, a viola solo, an organ voluntary, a person reading the Lesson for the first time, yours truly standing on a chair, and a relentless number of errors – but it is shown below for you to watch – finally, after hours of uploading!
There are four hymns too, and a hymn sheet, which is available here: Epiphany Service 2020 – hymns
For those not able to attend the Christmas services at Dunsforth and Aldborough, here is Karen’s Christmas Sermon & readings: ChristmasDay2020
Many folk say that Christmas starts with the service from King’s College, Cambridge. Now we have a new tradition: Christmas starts with opening the last windows on the on-line Advent Calendar – found at
A very happy Christmas to everyone – from the folk at Boroughbridge Churches
