A weekly short service for worship at home
Now that all church buildings are closed for the time being, we are finding new ways to connect and worship together. Our weekly news sheet is changing!
Each week the inside pages will contain a short printed service for worship at home – on your own or with the people you live with. It contains prayers, a reading and a short thought on the first page.
Do you know anyone who is not on the internet and would like to receive this weekly printed service through the post? Please let our church office know their details.

Light a candle of hope in your windows this Sunday at 7pm
Light a candle of hope: A national call to prayer in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic
This Mothering Sunday, 22 March, we are calling all churches to a National Day of Prayer and Action. At such a time as this, when so many are fearful and there is great uncertainty, we are reminded of our dependence on our loving heavenly Father and the future that He holds.
At 7pm this Sunday, light a candle in the windows of your homes as a visible symbol of the light of life, Jesus Christ, our source and hope in prayer. Whether you are continuing to worship as congregations or not, we have the great privilege and freedom to be able to call upon God, wherever we are, individually and corporately, for healing in our country. We would pray for all in leadership at this time, making decisions about the containment of the Covid-19 virus, for those working in health and social care, and especially for the most vulnerable, whether elderly or those with underlying health conditions.
Churches Together in England: the Archbishop of Canterbury, the RC Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, the Moderator of the Free Churches, the CTE president for the Orthodox Churches, and the CTE Pentecostal president, and is supported by Churches Together in Britain and Ireland, Cytûn, the Church of Scotland, and the Evangelical Alliance.
A Spirit of Power, Love and a Sound Mind
Ian Jennings writes:
In the current climate we need a balance between wisdom and trust – doing what we need to do to keep safe and to keep others safe and trusting the constant care of a loving God who does not give us a spirit of fear!
