Eco Church
As part of our commitment to becoming a greener church we should also reflect on our own lifestyle and are therefore invited to join the work of Greenpeace in this PLASTIC SURVEY. Running from 16 to 22 May it is a chance to look at all the plastic we use and what happens to it. Sheets are also available in church to complete your count.

There is no longer a legal requirement to wear a face covering. The government suggests you continue to wear one in crowded or enclosed spaces where you may come into contact with other people you do not normally meet.
Receiving Communion. Following the clergy's attendance of the Chrism Eucharist at Southwark Cathedral, we were reminded that it is neither Diocesan nor Church of England guidance to intinct (dip) the wafer in the wine. Do please either receive directly from the chalice or continue to receive in one kind. And do also remember we always have both gluten-free wafers and non-alcoholic wine available.

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.
