Press pause 2026 banner

Press Pause is a regular event at Beverley Minster for anyone wanting to take time out to experience God’s presence through teaching and time with others.  All are welcome whether you are newly exploring faith or have been on the faith journey for many years.

There will be time for prayer, reflection, discussion and coffee!

Saturday 14 November – 10.00 – 13.30  

“LIVING A JESUS-SHAPED LIFE”

THE LEADER

Revd Mark Carey was until recently vicar of a thriving network of churches in and around Bridlington.  He has recently taken on the role of Director of Mission and Ministry for the Diocese of York. Mark’s passion is to encourage people in everyday discipleship with Jesus which can bring many challenges but also many joys! Married for 38 years to Penny, they are happy adoptive parents to three, now adult, children and enjoy empty-nesting and grandparent duties.   

What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus?

What would it look like if we lived a ‘Jesus-Shaped’ life? How can we hear from God like Jesus did? How might our thinking and actions need to change? How does the Holy Spirit work that change in us? How can we do the things Jesus did?

The morning will include teaching and time to interact with God and with each other and for us to be encouraged. In time-honoured traditional there will also be opportunities to chat and drink copious amounts of coffee.

REFRESHMENTS

Hot and cold drinks will be provided on arrival and at the coffee break.

COST

There is no charge for Press Pause but there will be an opportunity to give on the day to cover Mark’s expenses and for future Press Pause events.

To anyone thinking of coming who might be a bit unsure, I would encourage you to come and just be yourself – there is no pressure to say or do anything – and simply enjoy what happens as you commit that time to leave your everyday life aside. As I did, you might be very pleasantly surprised by how much it helps in ways you had not even thought of.’
