During the COVID-19 virus outbreak the Church of England has taken the difficult but prudent decision to stop all collective worship for the time being. I'm working on various means to put services online and one or two resources have already been uploaded.
Churces have now also had to be closed for private prayer. Prayer stations were set up but sadly cannot be accessed. However I have left some resources and palm crosses in the closed porches if you happen to pass by on your own. You can of course email us with your prayers using this link.
I will be saying prayers from home (hopefully live streamed or recorded) at the published times as long as I'm able to do so and I invite everyone to set aside the time you would normally be at church to offer prayers wherever you are.
Prayer resources are being made available on the Church of England website here.
You'll also find some links to worship at Cathedrals and churches in other places on our COVID-19 Info page.
Below youll find the times and locations of all our regular services. At present the advice is to Stay home and keep our distance and so we'd really like you to stay safe and pray at home.
Register for our emails and receive weekly updates. See the Covid-19 Information page for all our practical community help schemes.
Thank you for your prayers and cooperation at this challenging time.
