A Diocesan-wide service

One thing we have learnt during the difficult time of this pandemic is that we can meet together in different ways. Our Diocese is spread over several countries but how wonderful to be able to join together for an Advent service; it's something we might not have done before, but please. join in if you can, it's gong to be a joyful occasion, including choirs from around the diocese. Here's the link

Advent and Christmas

Please remind your friends that they need to reserve a place at either of the carol services on 12 December, you'll find the links below. There very few places left in the morning but more places in the evening.

We are entirely self-funded and the months of the pandemic have affected everything and everybody, not least our financial situation, which is currently cause for concern.
We're grateful to everyone who continues to support the church and its work, which goes beyond weekly services. Thank you!
If you're not already a regular giver, please consider whether you can give a little each month. Small amounts are just as welcome as large ones, really!
