Return to Sunday Worship in Church
We will be returning to physically distanced services from Sunday 23rd August and you will need to register so we know numbers in advance.
About this Event: Please be assured that the Elders and working group have put plans in place for your safety. We are very excited to see one another again but we are taking our responsibilities seriously to ensure that you can have a safe and enjoyable return to meeting together.
As there is no Sunday school, the services will be all age.
*Services will still be available online for those who cannot join us in person*
There are a number of things we need you to know before as we move to physically distanced services from Sunday 23rd August.
For the foreseeable future this is will be the way we gather for worship so please bear with us and listen to the instructions of the people who are here to help you have a safe return to meeting together.
We do want your feedback, but please give it gently and speak to Gareth or one of the Elders if you think something needs addressed.
We may also have to change these arrangements should the Government guidance change.
We can't wait to see you again and look forward to sharing some time together, albeit in a different way than we are used to.
God bless and stay safe.
Rev Gareth Simpson (Minister) and Stephen Walker (Clerk of Session) on behalf of your Elders.

There are a number of things we need you to know before as we move to physically distanced services from Sunday 23rd August.
- Importantly, we are asking you to wear a face covering (unless exempt)
- Pew Bibles will not be available so please bring your own if you can, there will also be no hymn books or announcement sheets for the time being
- Registration will be required and we will allocate you a seat each week - please help those who are unable to register themselves so everything goes smoothly
- Registration will open from 5pm each Monday and close at 5pm on Friday prior to each Service
- Numbers will be capped to ensure safe distances are maintained
- We will have ushers, signage and hand sanitisers in place for your safety
- Please bring a coat or other layer so the doors can be kept open before the service starts
- The Service will be an all age service, as Sunday School will not return immediately
- We ask that you arrive early to avoid bottlenecks at the main entrance
- We kindly ask that you don't congregate in the Church Car Park before and after the service to ensure everyone has the opportunity to arrive and leave safely
