Our parishes are springing into action as we work out how to do church in this new reality.

Things are moving fast but we have rectors posting video messages on social media, new YouTube channels launched, churches open for prayer, prayer updates, letters and emails going out and teams being set up to support the elderly and vulnerable. Facebook is humming with stories.

Here’s just one from yesterday …

Holy Trinity Ballylesson has had an amazing response from the wider community to their Foodbank collection point. Rector, Mervyn Jamison said, “We joined the local BT8 Coronavirus Community Support page and folk have been coming from all around to leave food stuff in. We’ve also set up our coffee machine outside, with social distancing and sanitiser applied. The church is also open every day for personal prayer from 8.30 am to 12 midday.”

The world is watching so please share your stories!
