Dear Friends

I hope this communication finds you all safe and well.

As you are all aware, we are in the middle of this terrible pandemic and our NHS is struggling to cope, our government advises we stay at home as much as possible.  So, in line with this and after consulting with our churchwardens, Deanery Clergy and Bishop Donald, with a sad heart I requested and was granted permission from Bishop Donald to suspend public worship.

As Jesus commanded us “we should love our neighbours as ourselves” in doing this we will protect our congregations and communities.  This will be reviewed when we are able to move out of lockdown.

I will continue to record Holy Communion on YouTube on a Sunday morning at 10.00am and all other services will of course continue online.

I’m holding you all in my prayers.

Every Blessing Rev Jon

 Prayer of the Week

Merciful Father and Lord of all life, we praise you that we are made in your image and reflect your truth and light. We thank you for the life of His Royal Highness Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, for the love he received from you and showed among us. Above all, we rejoice at your gracious promise to all your servants, living and departed, that we shall rise again at the coming of Christ. And we ask that in due time we may share with your servant Philip that clearer vision promised to us in the same Christ our Lord; who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
