Starting on Sunday 11th October we are opening the church for a service beginning at 10.30 a.m. The service will be screened and we will be using the You Tube material sent out by the Circuit each week. We have been following materials in the Jesus Shaped People series. By screening the virtual service at Northcliffe we hope it will provide an opportunity to come together, even if not in the ways we were used to ‘pre-lockdown’. It will enable those without the technology at home to share in the service and hear the hymns, readings, prayers and sermon. It will provide a visual focus too. Though chairs will be spaced out and no singing is allowed, it seems good to open our doors once more and welcome people in.

Following the easing of restrictions in Shipley, we are re- opening the church from September 6th each Sunday afternoon between 3 and 4.45 pm. We hope it will give people a QUIET SPACE to reflect, remember or just be at peace after this long period of lock-down. Please feel free to drop in any time between 3 and 4.45pm for as long or as short a time as suits you. You do not have to be a regular member of our church congregation.
Because of Government and Church guidelines, we are observing social distancing and have set the chairs out so it will all look rather different from our normal arrangement and can only accommodate a maximum of 30 people at any one time. There are hand-sanitising stations and a one-way entrance and exit system set up. We are obliged to maintain a register of names and contact details of those who come in, again under regulations, but this will remain confidential and retained for just 21 days.
We do look forward to welcoming you.
