Notices
Coronavirus
We have resumed congregational worship for our three parishes and will gradually introduce more services in each of the churches over the coming weeks as conditions allow.
Restrictions of which you will be familiar from before Christmas remain:
- Social distancing from those not in your household or care bubble, must be maintained.
- Face masks must be worn at all times in church.
- Please use the hand cleanser at the door.
- We will not be able to join in with the singing of the hymns.
- Holy Communion will be distributed in a safe manner in one kind only.
- After the service you must disperse and not stay in church to have a catch up.
Café Zoom
Tuesday morning’s Coffee and Cake sessions are now online. We are getting together virtually by Zoom on Tuesdays from 10:30am to 11:15am. Contact Hilary Catchpole at h.catchpole@btinternet.com, preferably a day or so beforehand, to ask for joining details for this week’s Café Zoom. You’ll need to make your own coffee…and bring your own cake!
APCM
Our church APM and APCM will be via Zoom on Thursday 22nd April at 7.00pm. Invitations to the meeting will be sent out nearer the time.
War Remembrance Pages Now Complete
We invite you to visit our newly competed War Remembrance pages, which record and commemorate the lives of all those named on Little Gaddesden’s Rolls of Honour and War Memorials. The locations in the churchyard of the the six war graves and the four family graves naming those who died in service overseas are included in the individual pages.
Services Private View Page
We are moving over to a password-protected private view system for some online services. This allows a bit more latitude in the material that can be used and shown. Parshioners who would like access are welcome to request a password by emailing wp-admin@littlegaddesdenchurch.org.uk.
Regular Giving
Please remember that the church continues to function with limited services, so we do ask that you continue with your regular financial giving to support the ministry. If you normally give weekly in church, you may like to consider paying direct through your bank account. Click or tap here to visit the Donate Page to find out more.
Pay by Text
We now have the facility to donate to Little Gaddesden church by text. Just text LITTLEGADD plus the amount you want to donate (between £1 and £20) to 70470, for example ‘LITTLEGADD10’ to donate £10.
Texts will cost the amount donated plus one standard rate message.
