Our doors may be closed (for the moment!) but we're still here for you!
In view of the current restrictions, we've taken the reluctant decision to close our doors once again for public worship - at least for the next few weeks.
It's a disappointment for all of us but we feel it is the only safe thing to do in the face of these more contagious forms of the virus and with many of us still waiting for vaccination. However, we're determined to re-open as soon as it is safe to do so and we'll review the situation regularly. In the meantime, here are some other ways you can be with us...and us with you! Weekly service on-line
Our Circuit Service this week is led by the Rev. Graham Cutler, this time from the warmth and comfort of his own home rather than standing in the cold, frozen River Tees! It is entitled: ‘Fully human in the wilderness’ Please join us! Zoom in...
We now hold our 10:30 morning services using Zoom! It's a bit of an experiment but technology like this is one of God's gifts and we should rejoice in making use of it. Contact the Rev Graham Cutler for your zoom link... (just click on his name!) ...on alternate Sunday evenings, starting at 7 o'clock, we have an hour of fellowship when we can catch up with each others' news and share a brief time of prayer. Join us on Valentine's Day (Feb 14th) for our next meeting. Contact the Rev John Howard for the link. ..and on Tuesday mornings we have our virtual coffee morning from 10:15 am to 11:00 am. Contact Mary Howard at <maryihoward@hotmail.com> for the link.

When you can't get to a funeral... In these difficult times, the number allowed to attend funerals remains very limited. That means many family members will have to mourn the loss of a loved one from their home. To help them do so in a thoughtful and meaningful way, the Methodist Church has prepared this short act of reflection. You can download a copy here. |
