We are keeping many Covid-19 avoidance procedures to keep you and others safe:
-
It is optional to wear a mask in the Worship Area; however when the service is in Andy's, a mask must be worn.
-
We are maintaining good ventilation of the Worship Area. As schools say: "WOJO – Windows open jumpers on". Please wear suitable clothing on cold days.
-
If you wish you can increase the distance by asking one of the welcome team for an extra "do not sit here" card. Unfortunately this is not possible when the service is downstairs.
-
You will be invited by a welcomer to come forward for Holy Communion, if you are able to.

Don't lose heart!
"since through God’s mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart… For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts..." 2 Corinthians 4:1,6
Archdeacon Martin asks us to encourage each other not to lose heart during the Covid-19 pandemic and restrictions, but be safe in the knowledge that we have the treasure of the good news.
