PARISH MASS RESUMES IN CHURCH It is marvellous to be able to come back to having one Parish Mass, in church, at our customary time of 10am on Sundays. We must continue with social distancing though, so if you intend to come please tell us via the button below, the website front page, or by phone if you cannot access the internet, so that in the event that the limit to the number of people is reached – in which case another Mass will be said – we can inform people as necessary. Please do not turn up to the Sunday Mass unannounced. We realise this may be inconvenient, but it is the best we can do in the circumstances and we hope it will only be a temporary measure. |
|
|
REGISTER HERE On Sunday there will now be one Parish Mass at 10am, but due to social distancing, please let us know you are coming in advance. Use the button here to tell us you are coming. | | |
|
|
WEEKDAY SERVICES All services will now be in church and open to the public. You do not need to let us know you are coming to a midweek service. Services will also continue be live streamed on Facebook. Please see the ‘Services this Week’ above for further details. |

NEW ALTAR FRONTALS Sometime ago the PCC commissioned three new altar frontals in memory of Arthur Leggatt and Fr Barnes from bequests left for this purpose. They are now completed: You can see the green one in use today. We will dedicate these works of art when the Leggatt family can join us in person. |

|
FACE COVERINGS IN CHURCH - CofE Guidance Following Government advice, the CofE has strongly advised that face coverings should be worn by all those attending a church as they are in any enclosed public spaces where there are people they do not normally meet. Face coverings help protect other people, if not the wearer, from coronavirus and other germs. |

A LITTLE SUSTENANCE Food, glorious food! At its most basic, we need it to sustain us and keep us going. But it can also become much more than that: a source of delight and joy, whether through culinary magic, or through the company with which we share it... | | |
|
|
HOME COMMUNION Fr Gareth is now able to offer Home Communions, subject to certain conditions, for those unable to come to church because of sickness or shielding. If you would like Fr Gareth to visit you in your own home please call him on 020 8478 0546 or reply to this email. |
