Patronal Festival Weekend, 8th – 10th June 2018

Posted on by

St Cuthbert, Ormesby will be holding a Patronal Festival over the weekend of 8th to 10th June 2018. All are welcome, particularly Teddy Bears.

Unfortunately the Church Tower is unsuitable for mounting a bungee rope so we will have a zip wire Teddy Bear Death Slide instead.

St Cuthberts Ormesby PCC and congregation would like to thank the following in proving financial support for roof repairs and recovering the roof in Stainless Steel. It should keep us water tight for at least another generation.

Allchurches Trust Limited

Sir John Priestman Charity Trust

The Jack Brunton Charitable Trust

Diocese of York Parish Loan Scheme

We would also like to thank our architects Ferry and Mennim and the contractor, Historic Property Restorations Ltd for carrying out the work.

A series of GraveTalk events are planned between May and November 2018. The first will be held at

St Cuthbert’s Parish Church, Church Lane, Ormesby; Thursday, 3rd May 2018, 10:30am

‘GraveTalk is a café space to talk about death, dying and funerals. It is organised by the local church and can be held in a hall, a home or a real café. At each event a pack of GraveTalk questions are distributed – there are 52 specially written open questions which get people talking about death, dying, funerals and loss. There are no answers, just conversation. And it’s open to people of all faiths and doubts.’

Here for everyone, organising a funeral, going to a funeral, after a funeral, my funeral plans or anyone with questions about death, dying or funerals. Light refreshments will be served at this event.

All are welcome
