No-one ever expected a pandemic to happen in our lifetime, but it did. Lockdown took place. Churches closed. Face-masks had to be worn. Communication became difficult. Then we discovered Zoom. We could meet each other again, albeit this time on-line. Church services started up, no masks were needed, and numbers were unlimited. We had a new way to be church, we could worship together again.
A signed Church Service is held on the first Sunday of every month at 10.30am. Everyone is welcome. The Service is led by Revd Vera Hunt and assisted by Ken Dyson and Anna Knaggs. You will be able to find the Zoom link and ID number on the ODCD Diary at www.odcd.org.uk.
Please ‘Come and See’, it is a signed Service. An invitation, containing ID and the link; also a copy of the Service containing hymns and reading will be sent to you by email a week before the Service date.
If you would like to know more or have your name added to our email list, please contact Anna Knaggs, either by text 07947241201 or email annaknaggs@gmail.com
We look forward to seeing you at our next Service 7th March 2021 at 10.30am
