We are thankful that we are able to meet in church at both 10am and 6pm, and that we have been able to lift almost all of our Covid restrictions. We still have some seating with social distancing for those who arrive early but most seating is now unrestricted. There is no need to book before attending any of our services. We are no longer asking anyone to wear face coverings, although of course you are free to do so if you prefer.
However, please do not attend church if you have Covid symptoms or have recently tested positive for Covid.
The Covid-19 pandemic is confronting us with
many difficult experiences and it may be that it is raising big
questions in our minds about life and death. If you would like to
explore these questions further, the website https://lookforhope.org/
includes blogs and videos which address different aspects of our
experience as we live in lockdown and battle Covid-19. It has been
produced to help you find hope during these difficult days.
If you need someone to talk to, or simply need help with an urgent supply run, you can contact us via the church office 0118 976 0285 / office@abch.org.uk. We will respond to messages as soon as we can.
Meanwhile, please be assured of our prayers as we look to God as ‘our strength and refuge, an ever-present help in trouble’ (Psalm 46:1)
