NEW MINISTER
Heath, along with New Hope and New Providence United Reformed Churches have appointed a new minister, Tafadzwa Kasere. He is coming into the URC on a Certificate of Eligibility from one of our partner churches in Zimbabwe. Tafadzwa is 42 and married with three children aged 15, 13 and 6.
He gained a Bachelor of Theology degree in 2015, completed during a one year posting as a minister. He then spent 3 and 4 years in two other churches within the Uniting Presbyterian Church in Southern Africa, before moving to his present post in Bulawayo. Whilst in post he spent a year at the University of Edinburgh (2025) where he gained a Master of Theology degree.
Tafadzwa’s experience and skills include; pastoral care, community development, youth and sports ministry, intercultural and ecumenical work and using digital tools for ministry (including livestreaming worship)
In Tafadzwa’s own words, his priorities in ministry are: a Christ-centred, spiritually vibrant community where every person feels valued and equipped to serve. I seek to encourage active participation in the
life and work of the Church, empowering members of all ages to grow in faith and discipleship.
My priorities include pastoral care, faith formation through Scripture, and equipping individuals to live out their faith in practical and compassionate ways within the wider community. Above all, my ministry is guided by faith, service, and community. My vision is to serve within a Church that continues to transform lives, build community, and proclaim Jesus.

The people of Heath Church welcome visitors to our Sunday services as well as to our coffee mornings (third Tuesday of each month at 10.30 a.m.) and Thursday Club (second Thursday of each month at 7 p.m.). We are a friendly, supportive community who enjoy a basically traditional way of worship but are open to new ideas and flexible in our thinking. If you are looking for a church that will welcome you, embrace you, support you and listen to you, please come and join us any Sunday at 10.30 a.m.

We also invite leaders of local groups to get in touch if you would like to use our Sanctuary for a celebration, a meeting, a carol service or some similar occasion. We may be able to consider a free introductory meeting/event though a small donation towards heating and lighting costs would be appreciated.

We are a community church and would welcome any enquiries about who we are and what we believe. Come and see what we can offer.

KEEP HEATH TIDY!
This is Jane modelling the new Heath Church litter-picking tabards. You may well see us in the streets around the church, doing our bit to keep the area litter-free.

Some elves have visited the church and tidied up our rather chaotic book collection. All donations received for the books are given to St Augustine's for their work with the refugees. Please continue to support this.

Also please note the Skircoat Green repair cafe will be on Saturday 15th March.
