Sun22Mar20207:00 pmTHE LIGHT SHINES IN THE DARKNESS AND THE DARKNESS DID NOT OVERCOME IT
In the letter released today, the Archbishops asked us to hold Sunday 22nd of March as a day of prayer and action at this difficult time for our country. One action is that we hopefully light a candle and place it in our window at 7pm and stop for a moment to hold in our prayers those who are sick or anxious. If you don't wish to light a candle as an alternative you might wish to print off the poster and display it in you home.Click here for candle of hope poster

This year we will be holding a Remembrance Service of Holy Communion at 10.45am in St James’ Church in Burnopfield, including an Act of Remembrance at 11am. However please note that due to COVID-19 and the need to socially distance, the Church capacity is vastly reduced.If you wish to come you will therefore need to phone and book a place with the Vicar in the week beforehand (beginning from Thursday at midday) as has been happening for all our services in Church since opening again for worship in July. Please also note due to COVID restrictions we will not be able to receive any wreaths or flags to place at the altar as part of the service this year. However, as part of our Remembrance, we will be tying red and white ribbons (for Remembrance and peace) to our Church railings during the week before and after Remembrance Sunday, which we encourage you to join in with. We will also be streaming an Act of Remembrance to the St James Burnopfield Facebook page at 2pm on Remembrance Sunday as well. Please speak to the Vicar for more details of any of this.
Vicar Rev Dr Andrew Miller: email andrew.miller@durham.anglican.org telephone 01207 270261

Having reassessed our Risk Assessments and set up etc during lockdown we have further decided that we are able to accommodate 18 individuals or households within such a service, and that to aid in keeping ourselves safe, there will be the slight change in that each of these 18 pew places will now have a bottle of hand sanitiser available within them for use before and after receiving communion. Please note that what has not changed regarding attending a service in a "COVID-19 secure manner "is the need to maintain social distancing and avoid mixing with others at all times ,sanitise upon entry and exit to the Church building ,bring and wear a mask/face covering that covers your face and nose throughout your time in the building .Provide your details for the reasons of Test and Trace .Most crucially it is still required that you phone to book a place to attend the service. I apologise once again for the late nature of this email, however please do call if you wish to attend the service.
