Services around the Benefice
We aim to offer a Communion service in one of our churches every Sunday and anyone is welcome to attend. There is normally some form of service in all three parishes each week.
On the 4th Friday of the month there is usually a Said Communion Service following the Book of Common Prayer at 10am at Flitton Church - no matter where you live, you are welcome to attend the service.
For details of the planned service please visit the Benefice Services page
The Church of England's weekly online service is available on Sundays at 9:00am here
During the Covid pandemic we recorded services for our Virtual Vicar channel and all those services are still available here.
UPDATE ON COVID RISK ASSESSMENTS AND STEPS TO KEEP US ALL SAFE
The PCC reviewed our risk assessment and have agreed to continue mitigation in line with Government and Church of England advice.
We will encourage the congregation to use hand sanitiser when entering and leaving the building; face masks are no longer mandatory but it is quite acceptable to continue to use them if so desired. Service packs will still be used for regular services and they will be put out ready for you. We are reserving the back two rows of pews for anyone who prefers to keep away from the main body of worshippers due to health concerns and we ask the congregation to respect the wishes of those who elect to do this.
We are mindful that the situation regarding Covid is still fluid and we will be guided by the circumstances at the time of each service and restrict numbers should the leader of the service require us to do so.
The service of Communion will continue as it has been for the time being. The person serving will have been requested to take a Lateral Flow test.
The Service Leader may make changes if they see this is needed on the day.
Cleaning will continue in line with our risk assessments.
The PCC will review the situation on a regular basis.
Thank you to everyone for helping to keep us all as safe as is possible in our church building.
