Dr John Sentamu, Archbishop of York, spent a day visiting Tadcaster on Friday 16th March. He met with town councillors, churchwardens and staff of all the parishes in our Benefice, visited John Smith's brewery, the Swimming Pool, conducted a very special confirmation service, spent some time at Magnet's Social Club and then finished the evening with a Question & Answer Session in St Mary's Church.
Those who came to the evening were entertained beforehand by the Chamber Choir & Brass Group from Riverside Community Primary School.
The Archbishop's Visit to the town made headline news once the Archbishop of Canterbury announced in the morning that he would be stepping down in December. How many people saw the vicar on all the news channels?!
