In May we begin a return to a more regular pattern of worship on Sunday mornings and evenings. By June we hope to be back to three services in the benefice on most Sundays: 9.30am, 11am and 6pm.
Details are published here and in our weekly email. Subscribe to our mailing list on our website www.quintetchurches.com.
As we resume public worship, social distancing measures will still be in place and seating for indoor services will still be limited. If you visit a church building for private prayer, please still observe the Covid-safe procedures.
*It may be possible for these services to take place in church. Please check our website and email for details.

If you plan to attend a church for Private Prayer
- Only attend if you are sure you are well and have not been in contact with anyone with Covid-19 in the past 14 days.
- Wash your hands before entering or use the hand sanitiser if you have touched anything since washing.
- Maintain a safe social distance (2m) between household groups and keep left, giving priority to people leaving the church building.
- A maximum of 10 people in each church in this benefice.
- Place a pebble in the basket provided to keep a tally of visitors.
- Where provided, take a post it note to leave in the pew where you sit t pray. Do not sit where someone else has left a post it note.
- If you write a prayer, please use your own pen.
- Only touch what is essential. do not touch books. You may take free prayer resources left for you.
- It is suggested you sanitise your hands again on exit and thoroughly wash hands again when you arrive home.
- We invite you to participate in our own simple 'Track and Trace' system if you want to help us keep visitors informed of their risk of infection should you or they subsequently fall ill. Details are posted in the church where available.
Please note, not all churches in the UK are able to open.
I will be saying prayers and celebrating eucharist from home, usually live streamed, on YouTube or Zoom. Do join me. I also encourage everyone to set aside the time you would normally be at church, and maybe a little extra time, to offer prayers wherever you are.
