2010 Events in Morland

Please click on the relevant link to see further information about a particular event.

  • K Shoes Male Voice Choir: Saturday, May 8th at 8.00 p.m. Tickets may be obtained from members of the Church at a cost of £7.50 (proceeds will go towards Morland Choristers' Camp Bursary Fund)

  • The Licensing Service of our new priest, the Reverend Stewart Fyfe. May 23rd at 6.30 p.m.

  • Morland Summer Fete: Saturday, June 12th in Morland School grounds.

  • ATOM (Alternative Type Of Meeting): On the first Sunday of every odd numbered month, the next is on July 4th, there is a service at 11 a.m. in Morland and Newby Village Hall instead of the Church, which should finish by 12 noon. This allows the children to have a 'messy church' in the supper room and still incorporate them into the main service when needed. This is not a communion service. Drinks are to be served from 10.30 am, and the service is to be followed by a 'bring and share' lunch at 12.00 noon.

  • Morland Choristers' Camp: July 25th to August 1st 2010, which culminates in Evensong in Carlisle Cathedral on the Friday, a concert in or near Penrith on the Saturday evening, Sung Eucharist in St Lawrence Church, Morland on the final Sunday morning and Evensong also in Morland.

  • BackToChurch Sunday: September 26th. We intend to celebrate this with a service. Details will follow.
