Forest Church - gra Dia

Join us for the North Yorkshire Dales Methodist Circuit Forest Church gatherings! Leave the church walls behind, breathe the fresh Dales air, and deepen your connection with creation and God.

Starting in September 2026.

Forest Church is outdoor worship that connects faith with nature. We leave traditional church walls behind to experience God directly in nature. Whether you are a long-time believer, seeking to explore your own spirituality or just love being outdoors, you are warmly welcome.

Despite the name Forest Church isn't limited to forests, it can take place anywhere! Our gatherings will span remote, rural, and more urban settings across the circuit.

We meet on the third Saturday of the month (dates and times may vary for special seasonal events). Our events are designed to be interactive, engaging, and welcoming for all ages. We will be outdoors, so please dress appropriately and wear sturdy, comfortable shoes. 

All are welcome
