Although Government guidelines allow Churches to remain open during the current lockdown we want to be seen to be doing the right thing. Following a Zoom meeting of the Revel Church Wardens and consultation with the Rural Dean we have decided to no longer offer physical services for the present as this could be seen to be encouraging people to leave home and potentially spread COVID despite us taking the necessary precautions to protect people within our church. If you require any help or information or even would like to make a donation towards church funds during this challenging time then please contact our Church Wardens- details in Round the Revel magazine.
This Sunday members of the PCC will carry out a short act of remembrance around the war memorial within the grounds of All Saints Church at 3pm ( there will be no service within the church) adhering to the published government guidelines of : "Event organisers should keep numbers of those participating in the event to a minimum.""Members of the public are legally permitted to stop and watch the event as spectators, but event organisers should take reasonable steps to discourage the public from attending events, and be mindful of the risk that such events pose, especially to veterans who are often elderly."Where members of the public do attend, they must only attend the event with their own household or those in their support bubble, or one other person (children under school age, as well as those dependent on round-the-clock care, such as those with severe disabilities, who are with their parents will not count towards the limit on 2 people meeting outside) and observe social distancing rules."
