We celebrated a wonderful occasion this afternoon when Bethany aged 4 was Baptised. Bethany made the decision herself to be Baptised and make her promises to God. Today’s service was a very special occasion with a teddy bear picnic theme! Vicar Malcolm said it was the first time he’d had a congregation full of bears! The amazing teddy cake was made by Jo-Ann Hendry - what a beautiful and delicious work of art! Well done Bethany, may the grace and blessings you receive from God guide you throughout your life.

Thank you to all the All Sorters who joined us on 13 April for another fun afternoon! We learnt about the story of the Lost Sheep and made lots of lovely bookmarks, bracelets and puppets. Thanks also to our wonderful volunteers and to the parents who came and helped out - we couldn't do it without you!
We made our lovely village look even lovelier this morning by taking part in the community litter pick organised by Bingley Town Council. 32 volunteers turned out for the litter pick in Cottingley. We collected an amazing 51 bags of rubbish. A fantastic achievement but what a shame this job needed doing in the first place! It was a great effort - thanks to all the volunteers for making Cottingley cleaner!
