St Andrew's during the Covid-19 pandemic
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 as we face another lockdown, but be safe in the knowledge that we have the treasure of the good news.
We are not all able to gather together Sundays but we are still planning exciting events and inspiring worship, all streamed "live" online each Sunday and then availabble for you to watch through the week.
As seats at services are restricted, for Christmas we will continue to invite those without the internet and those more isolated in our community. The facility to book via Eventbrite will begin in January.
