New 2021 Lockdown Information **Updated 10th January**
Updated: Jan 13, 2021
**Update 10th January 2021**
Given the recent news about the increasing number of infections and deaths caused by the various strains of COVID-19 our PCC passed the following resolution to temporarily cease face-to-face public worship but to move exclusively to offering a range of other stay-at-home communal worship experiences. More details of what is available on the front page of this website. Here is the resolution we passed unaminously;
Starting from Sunday 10th January we the PCC retroactively support the cessation of face-to-face public worship in the parish of St Michael and All Angels, Cherry Burton until the lifting of the recent COVID-19 Lockdown restrictions. This is not an easy decision but one which we make with the well-being of all in our care in mind. We will continue to provide a wide ranging worship provision via our website and other media platforms, providing printed material and online resources as appropriate. We will also do our best to provide good pastoral care for the wider community and to work in partnership with other individuals and groups to provide this care. The building can still be used for administrative purposes, fabric repairs and maintenance, the recording or broadcasting of worship services and other pastoral provision under the further guidance of the PCC and its Standing Committee. The building will not be used for any public gathering including the use for private prayer as this would constitute face-to-face pubic worship. We remain committed to our mission statement to know God, show God and to share God and believe this proposal is a challenging but tangible way to demonstrate this within our communities. Agreed upon unanimously by the PCC of St Michael and All Angels on 10th January 2021.
