The Sunday Next Before Lent - 14th February 2021
Dear all
This Sunday our service of Holy Communion will once again be recorded. As previously the Eucharist will be live from 8.30am on Sunday morning, streaming from that time and then available at any time later for you to use in your devotions. This week the service comes from All saints', Farnborough. The videos for all benefice services can be found on the benefice website, YouTube, and Facebook. As always, subtitles will be available.
There will be no onsite services this Sunday.
Watch this space for further announcements about services .
