In view of the present high rates of Coronavirus infections the church leadership has decided that a plan to re-open our building for worship on 17th January cannot go ahead. (This decision has since been affirmed by a recommendation from the Baptist Union). Services will continue to be streamed each Sunday for the foreseeable future and the question of returning to the premises to worship will be kept under review.

Helen, our Church Administrator, is hosting a chat session on Zoom every Wednesday at 2pm. There is no particular agenda other than to chat to whoever else joins in. For login click here or email Helen here
