<div>Covid Restrictions: </div>After considerable <span style="font-size: 1rem;">discussion, the PCC has decided that we </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">should be very cautious initially about how </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">we should react to restrictions being eased. </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">It is expected that face masks will be worn as before, and </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">social distancing be observed. We shall NOT resume </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">singing immediately, and there will be some changes to </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">the liturgy. Receiving from the chalice will be available, </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">but ONLY if you wish. The recommendations will be </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">reviewed in a few weeks’ time, when we shall have a </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">clearer idea of what the virus is up to.</span><div><span style="font-size: 1rem;">Baptism It is wonderful news that people </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">are once again bringing their babies for </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">baptism!

<div>Covid Restrictions The PCC will be</div><div>considering the relaxation of restrictions and</div><div>how they affect us here at their meeting this</div><div>week. Recognising that there is a lot of</div><div>concern about Covid with rising infections and deaths,</div><div>there will be NO immediate change to our precautions,</div><div>but these will be phased in over the next six weeks or so,</div><div>and in line with C of E advice. Caution is the watchword!</div><div>Flowers today have very kindly been</div><div>donated by Anne and Peter Kearle to</div><div>commemorate his late parents’ wedding</div><div>anniversary.

There will be a baptism today at</div><div>12noon, and next Sunday (when restrictions will be</div><div>partially lifted) at 11.30am.</div><div>Discussion Group Our monthly</div><div>discussion group will meet (safely) in</div><div>the hall this Thursday at 7.30pm, when</div><div>we shall be looking at the controversial and difficult</div><div>subjects of resuscitation, assisted dying, and euthanasia.</div>
