COVID update
With the rise in infections and the new Omicron variant, please think carefully about attending services over the coming days, for your safety and the safety of others. If you do wish to attend church, please wear a mask, sanitise your hands, keep social distancing as much as possible, and test yourself beforehand where possible.
Over the coming days, we will monitor our planned events closely, and aim to worship outside where this is practical and feasible. If we have to cancel services, we will endeavour to communicate this as widely and quickly as we can.
Please do not feel under any obligation to attend services if you feel unsafe or at risk, even if you were down to participate (through music, singing in a choir, reading a lesson, sidesperson duty etc). There is no obligation for anyone to attend church!! Please use your judgement, and know that you are not expected to attend services.
Remember that Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us, will be with us whether we meet in buildings to worship, or just celebrate at home.
