As we follow government guidelines we are planning to have our first service on Sunday 19th of July 11.30 am.
There are a couple of reasons for choosing this date.
The pastors previously planned holidays are for two weeks commencing the 29th of June.
Also some refurbishment work will be taking place over the next couple of weeks.
We look forward to re commencing our church services. We will have social distancing and hygiene policy in place and encourage everyone to participate with them.
Blessings. Pastor Jim.

Dear Church Leader
Yesterday’s announcement by the Northern Ireland Executive that churches can re-open from 29th June is a welcome move and I am sure will be well received by local congregations. The absence of communal worship and fellowship has been greatly missed during lockdown. While the adaptation to online services has undoubtedly helped the word reach many homes, it is no substitute for joining together as we are instructed to do.
I am conscious that many congregations have questions around the form worship will take, and what will be permitted and not. I have spoken with the First Minister who has informed me that a meeting of the Churches Working Group will convene early next week, that the Chief Medical Officer will attend, and guidance should be forthcoming from that meeting. I am conscious that many denominations are currently assessing best practice measures and it is advised that you make contact with your relevant point of contact for information.
As soon as guidance is issued I will distribute it to you as quickly as possible.
In the meantime if you require any assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Yours sincerely
Carla
