Services cancelled but the Church remains open for visits and private prayer

Sadly the Christmas Outdoor Carol Service on 20  December and Christmas Day Communion have been cancelled but the Church remains open for visits and private prayer from now and throughout Christmas with a Prayer Tree in the porch that you are welcome to add your prayers to. The church is on the route of the Tarset Christmas Challenge where people have decorated their gardens or trees or made a tableaux visible from the road. You are welcome to take the carol sheets away and return at a later date, use the church to sing or pray in your bubbles.
