OUR CHURCH REOPENS FOR WORHSHIP AND PRAYER
FROM SUNDAY 2ND AUGUST
You are warmly invited to join us for A simple service of Holy Communion
10.30am Every Sunday
If you are unable to join us in Church an online Service will continue to be available here on our website.
Guidelines for preventing the spread of coronavirus mean that
our services will feel very different…
•
Everyone is required to wear a mask, except in the case of medical exemption.
•
Everyone will be asked to sanitise their hands as they enter and leave.
•
Everyone will be asked to give their name and contact details to assist with NHS “test and trace.”
•
There will be posters and markers to help everyone move around the church in a safe way to maintain 2m social
distance wherever possible.
•
The total number of people will be limited to 27 with people sitting in alternate pews. (Increased if members of the
same household sit together).
•
There will be an order of service to take home and bring back with you.
•
Music will continue to be an important part of our worship - although we will not be able to sing, there will be
recorded or live music for reflection.
•
We will share Communion together, but this will be the bread only.
•
Although we will not be able to share in the usual time of socialising over refreshments at the end of the service,
there will be a strong sense of comfort gained from being able to worship together as “the body of Christ” in one
place.
