In Church Services suspended – Online only till we return to level
2 or lower as per Govt 5 stage roadmap
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:
Once we return to level 2 or lower, or if Govt guidelines change. Only then
will 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 activities suspended till restrictions lifted
Bible Study will continue on zoom for now
All Services via Facebook Live till restrictions lifted
Link to service will be available on Parish website later in day of
recording.
