Be InSpired every Wednesday evening

InSpire is a network of students and young adults aged from 18 to 30ish. We meet each Wednesday night, usually in church (though sometimes in a local pub or other venues), for a range of different events – meditations, Bible studies, food, crafty activities, worship, discussions, speakers… See below for this term’s events.

New people are always welcome, so we look forward to seeing you soon! If you have any questions, just email Jelly on jelly@stmarkssheffield.co.uk.

Always at 8pm, and in church unless stated otherwise.

Welcome students!

St Mark’s has much to offer you: sensible and responsible theology; services that vary from traditional to alternative; an engaging programme for learning and exploration; socials that take us to the Lake District and beyond; and, above all, a community to which you can belong and where you can make your home.

Symon Hill: Walk of Repentance

Wednesday 26th October, 8pm in the upper room, St Mark's

In the summer of 2011, Symon Hill walked from Birmingham to London as a pilgrimage of repentance for his former homophobic attitudes and beliefs.

New term, new student?

Jelly, our student and young adults worker

Are you coming to Sheffield to study and looking for a church student group? Maybe you’ve not been involved with a church before but you’d like to try church out and you’ve had a few questions up your sleeve for a while. Perhaps you just want to belong to a community, a place where people matter and where there’s a conversation about what’s important in life. Continue reading →
