Forty people gathered for an outside service at Burton on 18th April as Covid restrictions eased and both the news and the weather improved.
In the middle of Covid lockdown no 2, we were permitted to hold an outdoor service for Remembrance Sunday 2020.
We held our first service for many months at Burton in August, outside naturally, socially distanced and with music but no singing (yet).
Our first live physical service in over three months will be held at Coates on Sunday 5th July. Please bring a picnic chair (or email [email protected] if you don't have one) for an outdoor holy communion service. Sadly we are not able to have hymns yet, but this is a start. The usual on-line service will also be available on this website for anyone who is unable for any reason to attend in person.
We are delighted to report that next Sunday's service comes from Sutton Church. Our churches are now open for private prayer - please see notices posted at each church for details of how to use the space safely.
As a Diocese we are marking the campaign, Thy Kingdom Come, with a series of events including a daily short prayer at Noon called "Praying for the Diocese with Bishop Martin".
In a video message, published today on the Feast of the Ascension, the Bishop explains why the days between Ascension and Pentecost can deepen our prayer life together especially in these challenging times and invites you to prayer with him for the diocese. You can watch the Youtube video here Please do share this invitation video widely in your church communities as we hope to get as many people as possible to take part. You can join in Praying for the Diocese with Bishop Martin via Youtube, the diocesan website and the diocesan social media channels, Twitter and Facebook. |
