Church buildings are open for public worship. Do please only come if you are comfortable to do so. Those who do come will find the same space and regulations as before: social distancing, hand hygiene and face masks with no mixing between households. One of the services will be recorded each week for the Team's YouTube channel.
The Parish Eucharist for 13 June (Second Sunday after Trinity) at Holy Trinity led by Mark can be viewed as a YouTube video. You are invited to take part by following along with the order of service and the readings.
Service for 20 June (Third Sunday after Trinity)

The Archbishops have written to the nation to invite people to join in reflection and prayer each day from 1 February at 6 p.m. The Church of England website also has resources (such as this Prayer for the Nation booklet; there are others for those who wish to persevere, for example weekly prayer for notices/e-notices). Southwark Cathedral has a range of daily online worship (listed on this information sheet, which includes links to their website). For those who prefer the telephone, there is the Daily Hope phoneline (0800 804 8044), which offers hymns, reflections and prayers.
You may remember from the first lockdown the Inspiration and Comfort section; do look at it again and perhaps you will feel moved to contribute something.
If you would like to make a prayer request or have a conversation, please do contact the clergy.

When it isn't possible to join with the local church,
this outline is designed to help you have a short time of worship as a household.
You are also invited to follow the Royal School of Church Music's Hymn of the Day, and Sunday Self-Service, a simple act of worship with music, readings and prayers which will change weekly. |
The term 'Spiritual Communion' describes the means of grace by which a person, prevented for some serious reason
from sharing in a celebration of the Eucharist, nonetheless shares in the communion of Jesus Christ. You are invited
to join in these prayers
as an opportunity to give thanks for your communion with him while unable to be present at the Eucharist.
