Reopening of Church Buildings for public worship & weddings
You need to keep an even closer eye on this website so as to know where and when services
will be taking place. As most of our clergy are over 70 and some shielding,
it may not be possible to have full services straight away.
Sunday Services for Trinity 5, 12 July 2020
Canterbury
Cathedral
needs your help
Canterbury Cathedral
is a holy place of global significance where worship and pilgrimage has been part of daily life for over 1,400 years. Since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis, the Cathedral has lost over £2million of income due to lockdown restriction, with no income from visitors, the Shop, or the Cathedral Lodge hotel and conference centre. Even when lockdown ends, the financial pressures on the Cathedral are likely to persist for some time. Please consider donating to help secure the future of the Cathedral during the pandemic and beyond.
Prayer for this week
Gracious father,
by the obedience of Jesus
you brought salvation
to our wayward world:
draw us into harmony
with your will
that we may find
all things restored in him,
our Saviour Jesus Christ.
Amen

If you are interested - whether or not you have done anything like this before, please get in touch with Jayne Bartholomew (01795 535654) to find out more by 6 July.
