Meeting in Person

Our thirty two churches have all had to respond very seriously to the Coronavirus outbreak, following both Governmental Regulation and Methodist Regulation. During the summer of 2020 it was announced that, with important safety measures in place, churches could begin to reopen their buildings for use, both for themselves and for outside groups. As well as the building being risk assessed, all activities which take place have had to be fully risk assessed by the group running them and safety measures put in place.

Remote Worship

During this period when many have not been able to access worship in person we have been encouraging all those who are able to access worship in another way. A list of helpful suggestions are below.

This is a great way to engage with Church during these trying times, whilst staying safe.

Watching on TV or Listening on the Radio

For those not online, please do remind them of radio and TV that might help, such as BBC One Sunday Worship, Songs of Praise, Choral Evensong, Daily Service or Radio 4 Sunday Worship. Local churches are also often print and distributing materials to those not online, so do contact your local church to see what they are offering.
