An important update from Christoph and Edda

Much will be changing at Denham Parish Church from this coming Sunday, 25 July. Not just some of the previous lockdown rules, but also our pattern of services from 1 August – lots to look forward to!
Edda and Christoph Lindner are taking you through the changes (6 minutes).

 

Download a poster of St Mary’s Festival here…

Sign up for our services at St Mary’s here…

All Change!

All Change!

Watch a short video update from Christoph and Edda here…

From Sunday, 25 July: 

We can sing again in church! At a time when Covid numbers remain high, we are taking careful steps to ensure that everyone feels safe when they come to church:

We will continue to keep all our hygiene measures and social distancing in place. By reducing the distance between individuals and ‘bubbles’ to about 1m we can increase our capacity at St Mary’s a little.

Please continue to sign up beforehand. We will keep some free seats for those who turn up and are not aware of this arrangement.

Being able to sing was at the top of your list in our survey a couple of months ago. To make sure we keep one another safe, we are asking you to continue to wear a mask inside St Mary’s Church. Of course you don’t have to wear a mask if you have a medical exemption.

You can choose where to sit.

We will refrain from shaking hands when sharing the peace and at the end of the service.

We will delay sharing the common cup at Holy Communion while Covid infection numbers remain high.

As soon as we have established a new coffee rota we will serve coffee and tea after the service – probably at the back of church to avoid a bottleneck in the vestry. Please let Victoria know if you want to help with coffee.

From next Sunday, 1 August:

The 9.30am service at St Mary’s will move to 10.30am.

The service will be streamed live from the church on Youtube.

Only the front of church (chancel and sanctuary) will be visible on the live-stream. If you want to avoid being seen on the video (which is publicly available on the internet), please do not walk into the vestry from the church five minutes before the service or immediately afterwards. Please speak with our parish secretary Victoria if you are on a rota to read, lead, pray, etc. and do not want to be visible on the internet.

The month of August will be a time of experimentation – we will learn a lot and probably make a few mistakes. Your feedback is very welcome!

A Letter of Thanks from LiFT

Last Christmas we invited you to contribute to our Christmas Appeal for LiFT, an orphanage home in Nigeria that provides a home for children who are victims of the humanitarian crisis in the country. Our associate minister Nnamdi Maduka knows its director personally and can vouch for the excellent work they are doing. Since then we have had additional donations for the building and equipping of their new orphanage home. Here is a letter from the director to our church. Please continue to pray for the work of LiFT.
