SUMMARY:750 Year Anniversary Bell Ringing and Service - St Andrew's Church\, Bishop Auckland
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday 28th April\, St Andrew’s Church in Bishop Auckland\, marks a sensational milestone as it reaches 750 years of heritage. In honour of this the church will host a quarter peal of eight bells\, which have been ringing out over the community since the 15th Century. \nThe ringing of the bells will start at 1pm and continue for a full hour\, a feat of true athleticism\, filling the town with their harmonic melody. Following this\, a special service will take place at 2pm\, accompanied by the Lord Lieutenant of County Durham Mrs Sue Snowdon\, the Dean of Durham Very Revd Dr Philip Plyming and St John’s School Choir. \nThe rededication of St Andrew’s church bells and blessing of the new ropes will be a unique occasion\, inviting people from all walks of life to join in the festivities\, regardless of faith. \nAfter the service\, hospitality and refreshments will be provided and guests will have the opportunity to visit the ringing room to watch the bell ringers in action as well as being invited to ring handbells. The Northeast Bell Ringing community will be making the pilgrimage to also take to the ropes under their new vestiture.

SUMMARY:World Day of Prayer service - Tudhoe
DESCRIPTION:This year\, St David’s Church\, Tudhoe\, is hosting World Day of Prayer on Friday 1 March at 6.30pm. \nAll denominations\, ages\, nationalities and gender are welcome. \nThere is no charge\, just an hour of your time\, followed by a cup of tea in a church close to home. \nWorld Day of Prayer has been an annual event for over a hundred years\, on the first Friday of March. \nEvery year\, a short service is written by the women of a specific country\, reflecting their ups and downs. \nThis year it is from the Christian women of Palestine\, and although written before the war broke out\, it gives us an insight into their lives and the theme\, Peace\, is totally appropriate now. \nAs dawn breaks\, the wave of prayer begins in Western Samoa and Tonga and it will end in American Samoa at dusk\, having travelled through every continent. \nDue to problems with the heating in church\, the service will be in St David’s Church Hall\, which is just behind the church and the car park.
