This week we are inspired to look at pilgrimage, and to assert that Jesus is ‘Our Way and Destination’. Robert and Sue have been offering hospitality to 2 pilgrims over the last few days, and as they share something of their story, we are invited to consider our own journey of faith. What is our […]
It’s always a pleasure to welcome Rev Mary Taylor to Wooler URC. In today’s service, Mary looks at Genesis 18, recalling a passage where Abraham entertained angels – and Sarah laughed at the message that they brought them! Is it wrong to laugh in church? What makes us smile – and who are the role […]
Fliss and Margaret lead our service this Sunday, and as it is Volunteers Week, they celebrate all the fantastic work done by volunteers in our community. Come and hear about the rich and varied range of activities that are made possible by those who give freely of their time and talents. And perhaps consider, is […]
In this season of Pentecost, Patrick helps us explore how, by the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives, we can experience more of the fullness of Jesus. Today is also our Communion service, and friends joining us online are welcome to share in the sacrament as we worship together. Everyone is welcome to […]
This Sunday we gather in Church as God’s people to celebrate Pentecost, giving thanks for the gift of the Holy Spirit. As we meet, we pray that the Spirit will breathe into our hearts and fill us with strength and courage, love and hope. Everyone is welcome to join us at Wooler URC!

Following the excitement of the Coronation on Saturday, Fliss leads us in a service of celebration. Reflecting on the events in Westminster Abbey, we rejoice that King Charles has echoed words about Jesus from Matthew’s gospel by declaring: “In his name, and after his example, I come not to be served, but to serve.” Do […]
Rev Mary Taylor travels with us through this post-Easter period, and takes inspiration from Jesus’ resurrection appearance to the disciples on the shore of Lake Galilee. Just imagine Jesus (who you thought was dead!) cooking you a breakfast barbecue of fish. That must have blown their minds! Do join us as we share their amazement […]
As we continue to reflect on the events of Easter and how Jesus’ resurrection changed everything, Ann turns our attention to the first Christians who learned to live out their faith in what we sometimes call the ‘early church’. You can read how their faith was formed and tested in the volatile Roman world in […]
The risen Jesus appears among his disciples. He breathes on them and says, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit.’ In the days following Jesus’ death and resurrection the disciples experience a rollercoaster ride!
