Since early Spring we have had a leak in the kitchen ceiling.After a failed flat roof system caused more damage we have had a full new flat roof system fitted on the whole south aisle of the church with new 4mm underlays, a new 5mm charcoal sheet and new insulation during August and September 2024.We were awarded a grant of £10710 from the Minor Repairs Grant provided by the National Church to help with the cost. Thank you to Royal Roofing Solutions of Rotherham for doing a great job.

All classes, in all year groups including the nursery from Thurcroft Junior Academy worked on a canvas which was put together and donated to Thurcroft Parish Church. The 12 canvasses created a collage - A master piece of Jesus. It was revealed to the pupils during their Easter Service in church on Maundy Thursday 28th March 2024
Thurcroft Big Local have purchased and dedicated a bench in memory of Rev Tim Leach who died on 9th January 2023.This was in recognition of all the hard work, help, support and advice he gave to our church and the village community after Tim and his wife Moira retired to Thurcroft in 2008. Rev Miranda Hayes blessed the bench in a beautiful little service on a glorious, yet utterly freezing day on Wednesday 29th November 2023, which was so moving. When you next walk by the bench, take a moment to sit and think of Tim as you take in the view of Thurcroft's Church.
