It’s Advent Sunday! Joan reminded us last week that Advent means “coming”. The “coming” of Jesus refers to his first coming as a baby 2000 years ago. The birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus kicked-off the Kingdom of God on earth. This was the beginning of the kingly rule and reign of God which […]
It’s a pleasure to welcome Rev Joan Grindrod-Helmn to lead worship in Wooler once again. Although Advent starts next Sunday, Joan is helping us to prepare for this important season as we begin our theme that takes us up to Christmas – ‘Worship in the Waiting’. Together we will step into the anticipation of the […]
This Sunday we return to thinking about Whole Life Worship as we bring the series to a conclusion. As we gather together for worship, we refocus on the God who is love and reminds us that all our worship is a response to what He has done for us in sending Jesus. Our wavering hearts […]
We pause our Whole Life Worship series this week as we join with Christians across the UK to mark Remembrance Sunday. Our service starts at 10.45 on Sunday morning so that we can mark the 2 minutes silence at 11am. Fliss will be leading our service, and everyone is welcome at Wooler URC.
This Sunday we celebrate communion together in our service, with Ann, Martin and Patrick leading. As we gather we will be continuing our Whole Life Worship series, and this week we will be thinking about how our worshipping inspires our everyday speech. We all use words in our worship; words that we speak, words that […]

This Sunday is the second week of our series exploring Whole Life Worship. Jackie and Margaret will be leading our service, and we will be thinking about how worshipping offers us fresh insight and gives us a new perspective on our lives and frontlines as places where God is working through us to bring about […]
This Sunday we are starting a new service series, called ‘Whole Life Worship’. We’re using material produced by LICC (London Institute for Contemporary Christianity) that helps us consider what worship is. Worship matters because it is our response to all that God has done. Creation, salvation, our redemption – the whole story begins with God. […]
On Sunday we celebrate our Harvest Festival at Wooler URC, but with a difference this year! Our morning service will be held outdoors (weather permitting), so that we can thank God for the harvest whilst surrounded by the beauty of creation. It’s not possible to livestream our outdoor service, but we’re also holding a short […]
As we reach the last week in our series of exploring various attributes of God, are acutely aware that we can never fully understand the nature of God. As the Psalmist wrote: “How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!” (Psalm 139). This Sunday, Patrick leads our communion […]
