Heating in Church Those who have visited our church since Christmas have most probably noticed that the indoor temperature is now much lower than we were accustomed to. Over the last three years we have enjoyed a very reasonable gas rate, but because gas is so much more expensive now, we cannot afford to keep the heating on every day. The PCC have therefore decided to turn the heating down to a minimum to save money. The church will now be heated for services and routine church activities, but at other times we suggest that you wrap up warm.
