Timeline PhotosGod calls the Church to proclaim Good News. It's a joy and privilege to be part of a worldwide church, where each day, our Anglican sisters and brothers seek to respond to this call in real and practical ways.
Today in Prayers of Hope for the World, I invite you to pray for the service and witness of churches worldwide. May we be faithful in living with hope and proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ in our neighbourhoods and communities.

**Our oldest parishioner celebrates his 100th birthday today. Here he is at the war memorial on Remembrance Day 2020.**

**Following the announcement of the new Lockdown rules this evening the Bishop of London has issued the statement below.**
**I have, however, made the decision that, given the vulnerability of many of those who have continued to attend church week by week, All Saints will cease holding communal public worship for the time being.**
**We will continue to produce weekly broadcast worship for at least the next three weeks and will continue to offer church funerals with up to 30 in attendance.**
**We will continue to keep the church open between 9.00 - 4.00 daily for private prayer**
**My love and prayers to you all. And do please continue to keep yourselves safe.**
At a time like this, the Church is here to offer comfort and spiritual support to everyone. We have a duty to care for each other, but particularly those who are vulnerable or who may be most at risk.
Rosamund a very difficult decision and one I also pondered about. I think you are right and the online services are excellent!
A difficult decision Rosamund but you have my support as always. Wishing all within our immediate congregation and the larger Deanery community Every Blessing for this difficult time and hope to see you all soon in person.
Difficult but safe for all.

I am just a bit concerned about whether they are breaking the Covid rules or not - though I suppose if the shepherds were all from one household and the kings all lived together they should be OK, as long as the angel doesn't count - it being a heavenly body and all. However the shepherds will have gone home by the time the kings arrive, but the kings won't get there until epiphany which is of course outside the specified 5 day period. Oh dear - the holy family is already breaking the rules - now we know where Jesus got it from....
