Notes:
*On
return to Church please be assured that while the services will still be posted
online, only the Rector and the Ukulele player will feature on camera.
Since
the start of the pandemic the clergy have been advised to receive the wine in
Holy Communion on behalf of the
congregation and I would quite understand if people want to receive the bread
spiritually especially as you will be wearing facemasks indoors.
Please read re:
reopening:
Churches will open their doors again on 30th June with services starting 5th
July unless we are advised otherwise. We plan on resuming with our 8.30am Holy
Communion service without hymns. At this service we normally had less than
fifteen people so we don’t anticipate that social distancing will be a problem,
this service is quiet and meditative. As our 11.00am services resume I expect
there will be some reluctance for parishioners to congregate.
We plan on having
every third pew in use with two meters dividing non household members.
Photographs to give
an idea of what social distancing at two meters will look like in church,
If numbers require,
we can use our porch and vestry which are wired for sound and we also have the
option of using our halls where we can broadcast the service live. We will use
sheets instead of hymn books and prayer books. So, plans are in place for
keeping everyone safe while still being able to come together as a parish
community. As guidelines recommend facemasks should be worn while congregating
indoors. Please see photos highlighting social distancing in Church. When
people are exiting, we envisage opening both doors at entrance of church and
will encourage people to leave the building quickly and have a chat outside in
the open air. Regarding Holy Communion, I will wear a mask for the consecration
and distribute in the aisle and I will quite understand if people want to
receive spiritually.
All
