Next PCC - will be this Tuesday 29 Dec at 7pm via zoom.                     

Church Services and Covid - At our next PCC we will review our risk assessment as currently the cleaning regime and other precautions against spreading infection have become lax (or not done at all).  To remain open we need named volunteers who will ensure the cleaning of seats, collection of names and contacts and our other precautions are adhered to. If we can no longer staff this then we will be obliged to only open when we can. Volunteer sign up page at the back of the church with dates etc. Please help us stay open.              

Faith QI - Returns in the new year.  This will be on zoom.  Each evening we explore a different topic related to our faith and spirituality - sometimes prayer, sometimes philosophy, sometimes theology.  At the heart of it is a desire to understand the faith we follow more and perhaps deepen our understanding through discussion.                          

​Social Zoom - With the tier 4 lockdown rules in place (and likely to get more stringent) we are exploring ways to support our parish community life.  For those interested in an online social gathering in January please contact Fr Phelim.  We hope to launch this in January with a Zoom bingo.
