We will review our arrangements in the light of your contributions and any changing circumstances. God Bless, LorraineBefore you leave home· Please do not come into church if you are concerned you may have covid.· Please maintain the general covid guidelines, ‘Hands, face, space’.· Please consider lateral flow testing if you have any concerns of an increased risk of covid.When you Arrive…· Please consider sanitizing (for more than 20s) on entry and exit.· Please make your own decision regarding mask wearing bearing in mind the sensitivities of those nearby.During Communion Services· Please share the peace without physical contact unless you are sure the person concerned would welcome it.· Please come to the altar rail when invited by a steward.
