Sunday worship
From January 6th the Government declared a 3rd National Lockdown to try to halt the rapid spread of Covid-19 and especially the new variant(s) of it. In a Press Briefing, the Prime Minister stated that "unlike the November national restrictions, Communal worship can continue to take place". This meant that services in church could continue, thoughwith no singing, as the Government accepted that churches have risk management policies in place.
From July 19th, the Government gradually lifted Covid restrictions including those relating to singing in church and to weddings and funerals. In the case of the Orebeck Benefice, from September services will held in at least one of its churches each Sunday, together with the 9.30am Zoom service on the 3rd and 4th Sundays of the month.The service sheet (pdf format) for the Zoom service is available. To join the Zoom service please contact Bill Clark. The next Wednesday Holy Communion service at Hacheston will be on Wednesday, 6th October at 10am. Singing is now permitted in church and Hacheston church is now open again each day.
The arrangements for October 2021 are as shown below, but may be subject to further change in the light of the Covid-19 situation.
