CHURCH RE-OPENING

LIVESTREAMED SERVICES, PRAYERS AND REFLECTIONS
 

We will livestream every Sunday at 10am and occasionally during the week. To watch previous livestreamed services, prayers and reflections or to join a service as it happens, click here. 

If you would like to watch Colin Cassin's funeral service please note that it is in two parts as we had a wifi fail in the middle.
 

Church is now open for Sunday services at 10am. BOOK YOUR PLACE.
Spaces are restricted so if you wish to attend you will need to book by ringing the church office on 269861. The service will be livestreamed so that you will be able to join us at home by clicking a link which will be on this home page. If you have Facebook you can also join from there. The service will be recorded and posted on the website as well.

Our Sunday Service 9th August 2020 - 'Do not be afraid'

Morning Prayer Wednesday 5th August - St Oswald

PRIVATE PRAYER
Churches are now permitted to open for individual private prayer and for funeral services, provided they follow social distancing guidelines. Following a careful risk assessment we have decided to open for private prayer on Tuesdays  9:30-10:30am and Saturdays  1:30-2:30pm.

CHURCH AND FACE COVERINGS 
Face coverings must be worn by all those attending a place of worship, including ministers, worshippers, staff, volunteers, contractors and visitors, where there may be other people present; remembering that they are mainly intended to protect other people, not the wearer, from coronavirus (COVID-19) and that they are not a replacement for social distancing and regular hand washing

Now that lockdown is easing it is possible again to have small funerals and weddings at the church. We have no decision yet on Christenings but you can book these in advance by contacting Gill White in the Church Office.

We are looking at ways of keeping everyone in touch and making sure that we are still here for everyone in the parish, whenever they need help, support and care. Each day, during the outbreak, Rev'd Jane will say prayers on behalf of the Parish  and will be regularly posting on Youtube, linked to this website, Facebook and Twitter. Please watch this site for regular updates.

We have created a Prayer Requests page so that you can send your request to us.
Past videos are available under the Online worship archive page and printable prayer resources can be found there too.
