Hello all, We’re really looking forward to sharing in worship with you this Sunday. The video should appear on the 'Brayton Parish Selby' YouTube channel at 10.30 on Sunday morning, but as we’re having a few issues with things not appearing immediately on the home page, if you can’t see it there then please click on the ‘Playlists’ tab, and go to ‘Sunday Worship’, and the video should appear in that playlist. If you’re not so familiar with YouTube and need walking through how to do that, please see the document attached. Alternatively, searching for ‘Sunday 19th April 2020 Worship Brayton’ in Youtube should also bring it up too, all being well. All blessings, Hannah

What a strange world we live in. How is it that an isolated incidence of poor animal hygiene can lead to the collapse of major businesses, including airlines, and place most of the world in virtual house arrest? The only silver-lining that I can find in all of this is that the virus isn’t Ebola (death rate of 65% or thereabouts, compared to 2-3% for Covid-19). Thank the Lord.No services this month and the Directory is missing because no events are now planned (Even Churchyard Tidying is cancelled...) But we welcome with open arms Revd. Christine Gillespie’s Dear Friends article. And Mr Reliable, Tony Service, apprises us about services and events (real and now cancelled!) on the Methodist Circuit including Nancy Hare’s 100th Birthday. Happy Birthday Nancy! Hilary Putman reports on the Soroptimist International’s quiz that was held in Eggborough Village Hall. And Jan Tetley brings together the tributes paid to the lovely Kath Schofield who died sadly in February.Finally I report on Breakfast with Bishops, the Revd. Roy Shaw’s excellent work in the St Dorcas Orphanage in Kenya, Jumble Sales and Rubber Ducks.Please note that most of the paper copies will not be available this month because of problems with delivery. If you would like a paper copy please let me know, and I’ll let you have once we are allowed out again.John
