Pray for the King family and all those who continue to grieve and mourn the loss of loved ones, especially this past year.

THURSDAY
Pray for Moses and his family in Hyderabad who are all recovering from covid and have had a very challenging time, and in light of the recent news of the Indian variant and the challenge to that whole nation - may all the CrossMission pastors be salt and light of the hope of Christ at this time.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
BACK TO OUR BUILDINGS
Here's the plan from now on, enabling us to meet in accordance with current guidelines:
- All will be welcome every Sunday, 10.30am, no booking required.
- We will offer children’s ministry in the church hall for 5-11s, for the duration of the sermon. One parent will join their children to supervise social distancing, whilst Kate offers songs, games and activities. The creche room will also be available, whilst not yet offering supervision.
- There will be an 8am Lord’s Supper (BCP) on the first Sunday of the month, resuming 2nd May.
- We will share the Lord’s Supper at the 10.30am on the third Sunday of the month, commencing 16th May.
- The livestream will still be available.
- We will continue to meet midweek on Wednesdays over zoom for the time being.
- Just as soon as we're permitted to remove masks, sing and share coffee... you'll know!
