Services in person and online
We are aware that, due to COVID, not everyone is comfortable attending services in person. The Benefice Council of West Trent, recommends that while in the Benefice Churches, please continue to wear a mask, use hand gel and keep a social distance away.
Our Sunday morning service and Wednesday evening Compline service will continue online via Zoom, where we join together virtually from our homes to share time with God and each other, until the end of September.
Please contact us if you would like to join our services. All are welcome and we have been blessed that people who would not usually come to our services in church have been able to join us.
