Public worship in church. From this week, in line with recent changes to the Government and Church of England guidelines, we will be asking everyone to wear a face covering inside the church building, except children under the age of 11 and those with certain disabilities/health conditions.

Please print your own order of service at home or bring it on your phone. Please also allow extra time to enter the building and be seated for the service. Please maintain a strict 2m distance throughout your visit and use hand sanitiser regularly. We will invite those who wish to participate in the Government’s Test and Trace initiative by giving your name and phone number at the door. The service will feel a little different, as movement will be restricted. We will be able to join in singing only in our heart.
