Whilst our church is closed because of the Coronavirus pandemic, we will provide suggested services for Saturday evening and Sunday each week, and for other major Holy Days, for those who would like to pray the services at home.
Some services will also be live-streamed on YouTube so that we can be united in worship, even if we cannot be together physically.
