Our churches - and coronavirus (COVID-19)
Time to start planning for the future!
For the moment, all our church buildings are closed but when this pandemic is over - and it will be someday, soon we hope - we’ll want to celebrate. But how?
A service of thanksgiving, certainly, but what else? A party, a feast, a festival, a concert, something where we can get together and see folk we may not have seen for ages?
How would YOU like to celebrate?
We want to hear from you so we can start planning something special so get thinking, look ahead to better days coming and send your ideas to the Chair of Upper Teesdale Churches Together, Mary Howard, at
maryihoward@hotmail.com
Meanwhile, if you have any worries or concerns where you feel prayer would help, please post your request here
.............................Prayer call...........................
You don’t have to identify yourself if you don’t want to (but it would be nice if we had at least a first name to focus on) and your prayer will be passed to our prayer team who will offer it to God for you.
And if you are alone and have limited access to help and support, please use the prayer link to let us know that you need help and we will do our best to pass the message on to the appropriate agency.
We live in anxious times, but we have a God who loves us, a Saviour who is with us and a Spirit who inspires us - and we are a people of hope. So, let’s all take Paul’s advice to Timothy: “Don't be afraid!”
Be safe, stay well, God bless.
