Due to Covid-19 St. Wilfrid’s and St. Philip’s buildings are both closed for any purposes until further notice. However, church continues in our homes and online as we pray together. Do contact us by phone, email or facebook in this time - and check our facebook pages (for the links, see below) for regular updates and streaming. Hannah is planning to live-stream her sermon and readings on Sunday morning at 10.30am so please do join her - and we are investigating how Rob and Hannah can lead prayers together streamed from their respective studies - hopefully we will trial this early next week. Take care of each other and stay in touch. https://www.facebook.com/stwilfridhalton/https://www.facebook.com/stphilipsleeds.org/
Dear all in St. Philip’s and St. Wilfrid’s parishes, We have heard today from our Bishops that all worship services are to be cancelled until further notice in the light of the coronavirus outbreak. We are obviously really sorry to hear this, but it is a necessary measure in the current circumstances. Please be assured that we will both be praying for you all and doing all we can to support all those in our congregations and beyond in the coming weeks and months. Rob and I will be on the phone to as many of our congregants as we can in the next few days to see how we can best support you and how you can support one another and our community. We will be exploring live-streaming acts of worship and also planning to deliver paper copies of sermons and prayers in the coming weeks to sustain you. We will also be providing practical help where we can. We will also be trying to have both St. Philip’s and St. Wilfrid’s buildings open as regularly as we can for private prayer (at a distance!). Currently we have plans to have St. Philip’s open on Saturday 21st morning 9:30am-midday and both churches open on Sunday 22nd afternoon 2-4pm and watch this space for further plans. Finally, do know we are here for you – do be in contact with myself and Rob, if there is help you need – or if there is help you can offer to others. With love, Hannah Do see this link for the letter from the Archbishops about this https://www.churchofengland.org/more/media-centre/news/archbishops-call-church-england-become-radically-different-public-worship
