Mid-week News
Here's some important news about how we will start to lift the Covid restrictions in Leesfield Parish from Sunday 22nd August. The views of all congregation members have been carefully considered, so that we can gradually return to normal whilst keeping everyone safe.
Some of the measures which we already have in place will remain for now, such as hand sanitisers, Communion in one kind only, the one-way system, and sharing the Peace in Covid-safe ways.
We also ask that face coverings are worn on entering and departing church, when going to and returning from receiving communion and when singing. It will be a personal choice for each individual whether they wear a face covering whilst seated in their pews, unless they are in the social distancing zone.
Zones will be created in church to allow those who prefer to maintain a safe distance to sit apart from others. If you are happy to resume social contact, please do remember that others may not be just yet, and respect their wishes by allowing them the safe space they need.
Singing will be gradually re-introduced with an opening and closing hymn, sung from the pews.
Refreshments will now be available after the service for those who wish to join us.
Plans are already being made for more services to be available from the week commencing 12th September, and we'll keep you informed nearer the time.
