Dear FriendsPlease find elsewhere on this page a new Service for Use at Home in the Season of Epiphany and this Sunday's Collect and Readings to go with it.The Service for Epiphany I sent out last week ended up being rather more specific to Epiphany itself than I intended, so this is a new one to last through the whole Season of Epiphany!I hope you find it helpful.We have only one bit of news, which is that Kinsham Church has decided to suspend services until further notice because of the increased pressures of the lockdown and the new strain of the Covid virus.So the Kinsham service on January 24th is, sadly, cancelled.At present we are continuing to hold services as scheduled in the other churches in the group, but we will be looking again at our Covid precautions to ensure that everyone attending Sunday worship or dropping in for private prayer is as safe as possible. We feel that it is of great importance to keep our church doors open - as long as we are allowed to do so by the English and Welsh Governments - and we will do all we can to make that happen. But we will not take risks with the health and wellbeing of our church family and friends.If you need me, or just want a chat, please feel free to get in touch by phone or email. Keep safe and well.Steve
