Tenth Sunday after Trinity (16th August) When attending services at the church and in the hall, please follow carefully the arrangements to maintain social distancing (2 metres) and hygiene, using face coverings. Avoid touching surfaces as far as possible. No singing is permitted yet and no refreshments will be served. For Contact Tracing purposes, on arrival you will be asked for your name and telephone number. This information will be held securely for three weeks and then destroyed, in accordance with the St Mary's Data Protection Policy. All socialising should be outside the building, while still maintaining the 2 metre distancing.
At 10am on 10th to 13th August the HOPE CLUB For the latest Parish News please see the Vicar's News Letter, also follow us on Facebook - see the panel below. To catch up on the on-line services held during the period of lock-down, please go to Our Continuing Worship page. Sunday Mornings: Now that some worship in church is allowed, a Morning Service will be held in the Church Hall, where the bigger space makes it easier to maintain social distancing (2m) and allows for higher attendancies. Note: The 10am service via Facebook and You tube will still continue, for those feeling themselves to be at too much risk to attend services in person. Sunday Evenings (In church): The previous pattern of alternating between Communion (1st and 3rd Sundays) and Evening Prayer (2nd, 4th & 5th Sundays) has now resumed, but Evening Prayer, rather then Evensong - i.e. No singing. Evening Prayer via Zoom has been discontinued. Wednesday Mornings (In church): The regular Wednesday morning Communion Services have now resumed, but in the Church - not the church hall chapel, to allow for greater social distancing. St Mary's church is still opening on Saturday mornings for 1½ hours for private prayer. Anyone attending the church or the hall is requested to follow carefully the measures put in place for social distancing (2m) and to minimising the risk of infection. A register is taken at each service for contact tracing purposes, should any member of the congregation subsequently proved to be infected. Please note that arrangements change from week to week as rules are relaxed (or tightened), so please check the Vicar's newsletter or facebook page to get the latest up-date. Resources
Please remember in your prayers all those directly and indirectly affected by the pandemic and render help to those in need of support. Petition for a faculty for a new organ in St Mary's, in memory of the Rev'd Judy Cook. ►
