De Gloria Trust Banner Exhibition

Etherley Methodist Church, DL14 0HZ, are displaying a spectacular and unique Exhibition at their Church, on Saturday the 12th and 19th of April 2025. There will be 20 De Gloria Banners on display, each banner being 6 foot x 2 foot in size. The themes of the banners are;

The Journey – 10 banners representing the 4 stations of the Cross, and

The Servant King – 10 banners representing a hymn by Graham Kendrick

These have been created by the renowned Textile Artist Jaqui Parkinson, whose outstanding work is normally exhibited in Cathedrals and Minsters throughout the UK. Her first husband was Rob Frost before he sadly passed away, and he was well known for his work in the North East, and the rest of the UK.

The banners of this exhibition have never been displayed in County Durham before.

Etherley Methodist Church will welcome visitors each Saturday from 10.00am to 3.00pm, entrance and car parking are free. The internals of the Church are bright and modern, they have no fixed pews, so the modified viewing area is excellent. They are fortunate to have exclusive use of a large tarmacked car park very close to the Church, which will be clearly signposted. The 5-star rated café will be open all day for morning coffees, light lunches and afternoon tea`s. The facilities are suitable for disabled visitors.
