With the sad announcement of the Queen's death, this Sunday we will be giving thanks for the life of the Queen, who was also the head of the Church of England for over 70 years. There will be special prayers and hymns in our service at 9.30am and you are all welcome to join us.The church building will be open during the day for anybody who wants to spend time reflecting or praying, and there will also be a book of condolence available from sometime tomorrow.Unfortunately, I fell ill with Covid today so am unlikely to be able to be with you, but do be in touch if you would like, and I will be keeping the people of the parishes who are upset by this news in my prayers.The national Church of England has also provided an online book of condolence and the opportunity to light a virtual candle.
