Church Services and Activities Suspended

A Message from the Deacons - 19th March 2020

 
Dear Friends,

We are living in unprecedented times as we face up to changes in our way of daily life that a few weeks ago we could never have imagined. But God has not changed and nor has our faith in Him as our creator, protector and saviour. We are working on ways in which we can share fellowship even as we are not able to meet together.

Earlier this week, all our mid-week activities were suspended. Now, we need to go further and announce that there will be no Sunday Services until further notice and all home groups will cease to meet. We do this with regret as we know that regular worship together is an important expression of our common faith. But circumstances leave us with no choice. Each of you will work through for yourself how to maintain your own pattern of prayer and worship in these days. Lots of new material will be available online for those of you who are connected, and on the television and radio for everyone. We hope that doing things differently can become the way in which God speaks to us in new ways, and enriches our faith.

‘The Lord will keep you from all harm – he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going, both now and for evermore.’

We pray that you will find some peace and safety in these words from Psalm 121 in the coming days.

With Christian love,
The deacons
