Previous Online Worship 2020-21

Previous Online worship - during coronavirus/Covid-19 pandemic restrictions - March 2020 - July 2021

From 30th March to 7th May 2020 during the first lockdown, clergy were forbidden to worship in their churches, so worship took place in The Vicarage, and from 8th May 2020 onwards, worship has taken place daily in St Mary's church. A congregation was permitted to attend from 5th July onwards. To view previous acts of worship, click the images for each relevant date - Please remember that they are home-produced without special equipment and far from perfect! Until we used video-editing software we were limited by file size, so recordings were split into two parts. From Sunday 8th November (Remembrance Sunday) onwards, when there was a second 'lockdown' the Parish Mass has been livestreamed each week via the church Facebook page.
There are also links to special Sunday bulletins which contain the Scriptural readings, prayers and notices.

Sunday Mass & Holy Baptism 11th July 2021, - 15th Sunday of year-: 9.30 am in church (also livestreamed from 9.28 am)

The Baptism of two young men, Max and Harry, who have recently become part of our worshipping community took place during this Mass. Together with George, they also received their first Holy Communion.
