This Sunday’s services will be at the usual times of 9.15 am at St Agnes' and 11 am at St Thomas', and this week they will be our annual Toy Services. Donations of toys in good condition will be gratefully received, and will be passed on to the local Women's Refuge along with the donations from this week's Worship for all Generations.
Our annual family Christingle service is at St Thomas’ Church, 3 pm on Sunday. It will be lovely to have the service in church once again - although the children were able to enjoy a Zoom Christingle in their own homes last year. All you need to bring is an orange, everything else will be provided, and the collection from the service will go to the Children's Society.
The latest guidance from the Government, the Church of England and Manchester Diocese is that wearing face coverings in places of worship is now mandatory for all over 12s unless they are exempt. All of the other precautions remain in place to ensure the safety of everyone who attends our churches, and we will regularly monitor the situation and update our risk assessments accordingly.
The Advent season of Worship for all Generations will continue at St Agnes' each Wednesday at 6.30 pm right through to Wednesday the 22nd December, and is recorded for our facebook page on Thursdays.
This Thursday, the 16th December, we'll be out Carol singing around Lees. This is a great way to take the message of Christmas out into the local community, and we also collect money for the Booth Centre for homeless people in Manchester. Meet at St Thomas’ Church at 6 pm - the weather forecast isn't looking too bad at the moment!
