Welcome!

Welcome to the website of Hull United Reformed Church (URC) Team Churches!

We’re glad that you have found us and hope you like our website. Like us it is in a constant state of evolution and growth so please feel free to come back and visit again! We hope to see you at one of our churches soon.

St Ninian's and St Andrew's, Chanterlands Avenue, Hull, Zion, Hallgate in Cottingham  and Christ Church, Swanland are all  open for worship.   Unfortunately, Christ Church, Southella has closed.  Weekly activities are ongoing in all 3 churches.

Do join us on Sundays:   St Ninian's and St Andrew's meet at 9.30a.m, Zion's service on a Sunday usually begins at 10.00a.m. and Christ Church, Swanland at 10.30am .  (Please note, it will be a 10.30a.m. start on Sunday, 12 November to accommodate the 2 minute silence at 11a.m)


Just a thought

 “The early church didn’t offer people a theology of the Holy Spirit. The theology would come later. They offered the Holy Spirit itself – the experience of God’s power. The hungry person wants real food, not attractive pictures of food.”    [Adapted]

Anthony de Mello

 Smile a while with some ‘one-liners’

             Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.

            If you don't pay your exorcist, you can get repossessed.

            A calendar's days are numbered.

            A lot of money is tainted; 'taint yours and 'taint mine.

            If life shuts a door, open another one. That’s how doors work.


Learn a new word

 If a boring person is always offering opinions that extend beyond his or her actual knowledge, that person is an ultracrepidarian. This is a useful word for narratives and character descriptions.

Example: "He was a real ultracrepidarian, rambling on about politics in a nearly incoherent way."
