Preschool
Holy Communion
(Now cancelled Until Further Notice)
Holy Communion will not be celebrated on until further notice. When it is celebrated, pre-packaged communion “kits” are placed in plastic bags and people will pick up their personal communion before the service. We will then consecrate the elements later in the service and receive together. There will be a trash can to collect the packaging after the service. Prayer and anointing will not be offered until the Covid – 19 crisis is over.
