News

How pleased we are with the progress of our building work and even more pleased that we will be in the church and worshipping again from Sunday 13th of July. We are planning an event on the Friday evening 11th July with a buffet meal for the Millom community, followed by a service at 8:00p.m, open to all, to celebrate our return. David Edmondson will lead the service and David Emison will give the address.
We have contacted all our churches so that those who wish to come for the Service on July 11th at 8:00p.m. will have that opportunity to share the celebration with us, bearing in mind that some may have to stand outside!!
We hope also that everyone will seize the opportunity to come and see us, perhaps on any Friday morning for our regular coffee time (9:30 till 10:30), or during the Heritage open days in September, on Friday 12th, Saturday 13th, Sunday 14th.
