posted in: Uncategorised 0

We are so pleased to be able to have returned to offering worship at Castle Wood Village every second Monday afternoon and Castleview and Talarico Place Care Homes on alternate Sunday afternoons.

In our church building, we are delighted to welcome back several of our user groups after a long wait for pandemic restrictions to allow: Special Olympics, Brownies, Guides, Pathfinders and Rangers. Also, Narcotics Anonymous has resumed meetings on Sunday evenings after welcoming new volunteer leadership.

Our church choir has also resumed rehearsals and offering special music on some Sunday mornings. They are a little muffled by their masks and proof of vaccination is required to attend rehearsals, but it feels good to have more singing going on once again! Thanks be to God!
