Welcome to

This year the URC nationally are urging us through Vision4Life (http://vision4life.terapad.com) to feast on the Bible, they are right, it is so important and here at Thomas Risley we will be encouraging it through the year. There will be a Vision4Life bible day at the church on the 4th of July.
