St John’s Church Bracebridge Heath May 2020.We are here for you, our parish community, during this unprecedented crisis. Revd Jacqueline and others pray at 9am and 5pm each day, please email any prayer requests to her.Due to closure of all churches we are saddened that our thriving activities, Butterflies, Crafty and Games Club, After School Messy Church and our Sunday worship and fun are cancelled for now. We continue to minister and serve you and those from our church who are able to be are part of the Bracebridge Heath Voluntary service. For further information on our continuing ministry we invite you to join us on our busy Facebook page or contact Revd Jacqueline.After any trauma there comes a time in our lives, church and community for recovery, for healing, and we hope that we at St John’s church can be part of this.When this is all over there will be a time for reflecting, consolidating and reshaping the ways we look after one another.It’s been heart warming to hear and see the ways in which people in our community have stepped up to help others in so many ways. When the time comes we at St Johns will pick up once again the things that were going well in our service and worship and perhaps begin new things.Bracebridge Heath is crying out for a Youth Group and it would be great to perhaps build on the community spirit we have achieved and work together in this way.If you would like to be part of something new when this is all over please contact Revd Jacqueline.With love from all at St John’s Church.
Please be assured of our prayers at this time.While we are unable to share in public Worship we are finding ways to continue as a worshipping community. Revd Jacqueline will be praying at home during the week and on Sundays for this community and our world. If there are particular things you would like her to pray for please contact her. Please join uson our lively Facebook Page- St John The Evangelist Church Bracebridge Heath Keep us good Lord Under the shadow of your mercy. Sustain and support the anxious, Be with those who care for the sick, And lift up all who are brought low, That we might find comfort Knowing that nothing can separate us from your love Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen
