Mirfield Team Parish exists to serve God in the service of the people of Mirfield. It is there for people of all ages in times of joy and to support people in times of sadness. It works with the elderly, young families, young people and also serves the housebound. It offers a welcome to all people.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am taking a 3 month Sabbatical.  Part of that time I shall be walking from Mirfield to Santiago de Compostella in North Spain. I will walk from Mirfield to Manchester Airport, fly to Lisbon in Portugal and then walk to Santiago.  The Pilgrimage has a total distance of approx 435 miles (700 km) and will take 5 weeks to complete. Although this is a personal Pilgrimage, a time for reflection and renewal  I am using the opportunity to raise sponsor money for the work of Mirfield Team Parish.  In particular I would like to support the recent work it has started doing with Christians Against Poverty to relieve financial hardship and provide education about good money management. 

I shall be walking with my wife, Janet, and you can follow our adventure through the blog https://wayonline.blog/ .
