The Church continues to be alive and active, but our buildings must remain closed
Government guidelines say that we must distance ourselves from one another and prevent the spread of infection in order to save lives.
Therefore, as well as public worship being suspended, all church buildings in the Church of England must remain closed.
Our worship of God and our care for each other continue but, for now, cannot be done in this building.
You can join others online for a short service at midday every Sunday; please let Simon know if you'd like to receive a secure Zoom link, by emailing [email protected]
We post a five minute Gospel reflection on our Facebook page every Sunday.
