The biggest impact for us from the recent government briefing (16th March) is the line “Avoid pubs, clubs, theatres and other such social venues”. Later in parliament this was clarified to include faith groups and gatherings. This means that for now our One Church buildings are closed for our programmes and events.
The good news is that, although the buildings are closed, the church is not!
Each Sunday, we have Online Encounter Services for all One Church locations.
Beyond Sunday, there is brand new online content available every day – from kids’ activities, to uplifting encouragements – there is something for all the family to connect with.
Our best way of reaching you with this is through our Facebook pages. Click the links below or search One Church and like the page to get all new content.
Remember, isolation is physical only. Reach out to people. Do something extra like make contact with a few others and commit to doing that as often as you can – it’s all about one another-ing one another right now; your family, your church friends and your neighbours.
We find ourselves today in a unique place; balancing our responsibility to both duty of care as a people-centred organisation, and remaining faith-filled. We believe wholeheartedly that the church can shine its brightest – through its people physically washing their hands and metaphorically washing one another’s feet.
