Important Information re church during Coronavirus COVID-19 Crisis

As you will be aware, circumstances at the moment at very difficult and advice etc. is being updated and changing regularly. This being the case we have just received this notification:
To all Anglican churches in the northern province of the Church of Ireland.
1. Until further notice, all parish organisations and activities should cease.
2. Until further notice, all Sunday and midweek services (gatherings for worship) should be suspended.
3. Until further notice, weddings and baptisms are suspended and funeral must be graveside only with minimum people in attendance. (please note that due to emergency regulations at Roselawn, no one may attend a cremation – not even a Minister or the Funeral Director)

I will endeavour to keep in touch re information & with some scripture thoughts from time to time, but the best way we can live out our faith in such times is to continue to look out for each other. Call your neighbours, check friends & neighbours are ok. I will try to make use of Facebook, email, text & telephone to keep in touch with you, please do the same. If you know people (& there will be a good number) who don’t ‘do’ Facebook or internet, please pass on this information.
“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of a God that us in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38-39)
God bless us all,
Colin
