You can find the latest services that have been live-streamed via our #Meltham Parish YouTube channel. We’re hoping the technical issues we have experienced recently are now resolved. Use this link to view both the current service live or to watch it and previous ones retrospectively.
This Summer seems to have flown by! Hope you are all rested and ready for whatever awaits you. This long awaited issue is full of updates including from Meltham Mustard Seed, St Bart’s Choir, Church Hall coffee mornings and Meltham Shoe box. This month also includes a lovely thought provoking poem.
Please continue to forward anything you would like to include in the next edition as without them it would be very boring! The next deadline for much needed contributions will be Monday 20th September.
Please send them via email to melthamparishmagazine@gmail.com or via the vicarage letterbox. (150 Huddersfield Rd, HD9 4AL)

Unfortunately, the technical issues continued last week with the YouTube livestream but we’re hoping (and praying) that they’re sorted now – it was all due to a tickbox that had become unticked! 🙁

We’re pleased to announce that Saturday Coffee Mornings are restarting at Meltham Church Hall. The first two will be run by the Parish as a trial. Covid measures will still be in place with extra cleaning, distanced tables and restrictions on numbers. Please also wear a mask until seated. Come and meet your old friends, and hopefully some new ones too! There’s so much to catch up on – it’s been such a long time!
Saturday 24th July – 9:30am to Noon
Saturday 31st July – 9:30am to Noon. There will be a cake stall for this one, and donations of cakes are most welcome – please support if you can and drop off any cakes from 9am. Thank you!

Unfortunately we’ve had technical issues for the past few weeks and the livestream has ended prematurely (usually in the middle of the sermon!). We’re trying various things to resolve this – apologies if it continues to happen – please bear with us.

Sat 10th July – Helme Church Graveyard – Grass cutting and strimming (mainly).
The team have been working hard recently with good results and would be delighted if you could join them, even if it’s only for an hour. You also might get a chance to sample one of Pat’s yummy scones!
DO YOU feel like some exercise that is cost free, in the open air and where the chat and laughter is as important as the work? If so, then you are most welcome to join our band of merry helpers. We aim for this to be an informal group, where friendships can grow as the weeds are subdued!!
Feel free just to turn up, for all or a part of the session. We have a good chat and a laugh as well as work. As we are outside, it is always weather dependent, here’s trusting for a long hot summer.
Other dates for your diary: 24th July (location to be advised)
If you want to be included in up to date emails etc. please contact: irene.harrop@hotmail.co.uk
All groups run from about 9:30am to 12:30pm but don’t feel you have to be there the whole time. Please bring own tea/coffee and tools.
Please contact Mike on 07867 951512 for further details, or to let him know you can help.
