Due to the increased transmission rate of the Corvid-19 variant, Public Health Lancashire are strongly advising pausing communal worship. Taking this into account and after prayer and consultation, we feel temporarily closing our church is the best option to keep our church family and clergy safe. Please pray this won’t be for too long. In the meanwhile there is a service each Sunday starting at 9a.m. on the Diocesan You Tube page Church of England in Lancashire (Blackburn Diocese) - YouTube . Radio Lancashire also broadcast a service each Sunday at 8a.m.
