CHURCHES OPEN FOR PUBLIC WORSHIP
We intend to have one church open at 10.30am each Sunday for a single service for the three parishes.
18th October, St Peter's, Heversham
25th October, St Thomas', Milnthorpe
1st November, St John's, Levens
8th November, Remembrance Sunday
10.00 am Services of Remembrance in St Peter's and in St John's, followed by an Act of Remembrance in each churchyard.
2.30 pm Public Act of Remembrance in Milnthorpe,
followed by short service.
There is a Service of Holy Communion (BCP) in St Peter's at 8am
on the first Sunday of the month.
There is no restriction on the numbers attending Sunday services, except what is physically possible to maintain social distancing.
Face coverings are also required to be worn in a number of public indoor settings including places of worship. However, those who are leading services, and those who assist them (for instance by reading, preaching, or leading prayer) do not always need to wear a face covering, although one should be worn especially if physical distancing cannot be maintained (i.e. distributing consumables).
We would advise those attending to observe social distancing and hand washing. Not all pews will be available, in order to observe proper distance. Congregational hymn singing is not permitted but we shall have suitable music played in services.
Holy Communion will be given in one kind (bread) only, as directed by church guidelines.
The order of service will be available as a download each week and we would encourage people attending to print and bring their own copies.
Please observe social distancing and use hand santisers when in church. Thank you for your understanding of the situation.
