Morning Praise
Thanks to Peter Sanders and Kat Walker for putting together another virtual Morning Praise service for us. The church leadership plan to have a service like this available every second Sunday.

All Age Worship Service
Thanks to Alistair Ghinn for putting together an All Age Worship style online service via YouTube. We are able to ‘meet together’ while being apart.
A new online service will be made available next Saturday.
It would be nice if we watch it together at 9:30 am on Sunday, when our usual church meeting would have happened, so that we are worshipping together while being apart!
(You are welcome to watch it any time that suits you!)

Watch this playlist on YouTube for our online virtual Morning Praise!
