Latest Updates & Announcements

Sunday at St. Martin's
Currently public worship is suspended but we now have a public Facebook page which can be viewed from any browser without being signed up to Facebook by clicking this Facebook page link. Or you can view its timeline (including live streams) by scrolling to the foot of this page. (To hear sound on live streams don't forget to click the speaker symbol at the bottom right of the video picture to unmute the sound.)

The plan is for our live act of worship with other churches on Zoom to be streamed on the Facebook page from 11.00 on Sunday morning. We hope some will be able to join us online then. It will then stay on the page at least for the rest of the day for anyone who cannot make the 11.00 time. Please email James at rector@stmartin.org.uk if you would like to join the service on Zoom with a chance to chat to others afterwards.

Time for Contemplation - Monday 4th May. 7.30 for 8.00 p.m.
An online version of our monthly Contemplation gathering will take place on Monday, led by Zoë Farren. Please email James (address above) for further information.

Coronavirus Covid-19
The Church continues to be alive and active, but our buildings must close

We are seeing a huge increase in the number of people falling sick with COVID-19. We must distance ourselves from one another and prevent the spread of infection in order to save lives.

Therefore, as well as public worship being suspended, this and all church buildings in the Church of England are now closed.

Our worship of God and our care for each other continue but cannot be done in our building.

Currently public worship is suspended and the church building is closed. I will add some further information in due course, but if you have immediate queries please email me at rector@stmartin.org.uk or telephone 015394 44176 (church office) or 015394 43063 (Rectory) - messages can be left at either number.
