Following the letter from the Archbishops of York and Canterbury, all public worship and events here at St Matthew and St Luke's have been suspended. Gordon went on Facebook Live earlier today to explain what this means and how it will affect us. The video can be seen at https://www.facebook.com/168926803742694/videos/616709305846319/
Here at St. Matthew and St Luke's we are spending a lot of time in 2020 thinking about what God is calling each of us to do. Gordon will be leading our Lent Course this year as we further this exploration. Our Lent Course will be on Wednesday evenings from 7:30pm in church. Everyone is welcome.
