Pastoral care - In any time of uncertainty and difficult it is important to look after each other please do get in touch if you need any kind of support- whether practical or emotional. We will pass along needs as they emerge. Staying in regular contact with each other would be great. In Little Braxted the Neighbourhood Coronavirus Support Network (NCSN) tel: 07791 397160 is the local ‘go to’ support service for those self-isolating and/or in need of support/shopping/ or just a friendly call.

“We are in a time of great challenge and great opportunity, as the Archbishops wrote, -“This is a defining moment for the Church of England. Are we truly a church for all, or just the church for ourselves? We urge you sisters and brothers to become a different sort of church in these coming months: hopeful and rooted in the offering of prayer and praise and overflowing in service to the world.’

In these difficult and challenging times please do keep in touch and especially watch for announcements and changes on our Website: www.churchinwickhambishops.org.uk We are confident that once again we can rise to the challenge- to adapt to our context and ask the Holy Spirit to use us in a new way.

With every blessing and all good wishes,
