The Parish of the Upper Skerne which extends from Bradbury & Mordon in the South to Deaf Hill and the Trimdons in the North, is this year celebrating twenty years since its formation to incorporate the churches of

St Alban's, Trimdon Grange
St Catherine's, Fishburn
St Edmund's, Sedgefield
St Mary Magdalene's, Trimdon Village
St Michael's, Bishop Middleham

A wide ranging and varied series of events are planned across the Parish starting at Easter when the children from all the Primary Schools will be decorating eggs for display between 1:00pm and 3:00pm in their local churches on 19, 20 & 21 April.
On 11 May there is a Choral Evensong in St Michael's followed by a talk on Sunday 25 May at St Alban's Church Trimdon Grange on the Lindisfarne Gospels by Michele Brown, the acknowledged expert on the subject, when a facsimile of the Gospels will be available to view.
Later in the year will be a Parish Eucharist on 15 June at St Edmund's Sedgefield celebrating the twenty years.
Later still are concerts by the Lyric Singers, Songs of Praise, Murder Mystery Night, a possible visit by Hartlepool Male Voice Choir and much, much more.

ALL ARE WELCOME AT ALL EVENTS
