Join our new sessions for families – Saturday Mornings at York Minster – and get hands creating wreaths before joining the Act of Remembrance.

For this Remembering themed event, families are invited to a morning where we thank God for all the people we love, and to remember that we are each loved and remembered by God.

Families are invited to come at any time during the free 45 minute event, which starts at 10am, and stay for as long or as little as they like.

The new sessions run throughout the year and explore the seasons in the Christian calendar, with different interactive opportunities each time including craft workshops, sensory activities, music and worship.

The session forms part of a Season of Remembrance at York Minster which includes the Feast of All Saints Day on Wednesday 1 November, a day to remember those who have died on All Souls’ Day on Thursday 2 November, the observation of the national two minutes’ silence on Saturday 11 November at 11am, and the annual service of Thanksgiving and Commemoration for Remembrance Sunday on 12 November.

York Minster

York Minster is one of the world’s most magnificent cathedrals.

Since the 7th century, the Minster has been at the centre of Christianity in the north of England and today remains a thriving church rooted in the daily offering of worship and prayer. The Minster was built for the glory of God. Every aspect of this ancient building - from the exquisite, handcrafted stone through to the unrivalled collection of medieval stained glass - tells the story of Jesus Christ. We invite you to discover this sacred place and the love of God at its heart, which has attracted people from across the globe for more than 1000 years.
