General Notices

As a church we welcome the news that from Saturday July 4 places of worship will be able to reopen for services for a limited and managed number of people while observing social distancing. Added to our recent reopening for private prayer we hope that this will be a step towards being able to meet together in an ever fuller expression of the family of God that we are all invited to be part of.

That said, we recognise that it is likely that things will continue to look, and feel, different to our experience prior to the pandemic. We want to ensure we continue to place our love for God, and our love and care for each other, at the heart of all our decisions - and that may mean that our worship needs to be done quite differently until it is safe and possible for more of our church family to gather together.

We hope to gradually allow more opportunities for people to join together in worship on Sunday’s and for midweek services, and will communicate what exactly that looks like as we transition into this new season as soon as we can. (We anticipate further guidance from the government, the Church of England and the Diocese of Chichester in the coming days - this will hugely assist and clarify our thinking and planning, which have been ongoing throughout the lockdown.)

For the meantime though we continue to meet together online each Sunday ( www.Ifieldparish.org ); the church building continues to open for private prayer throughout the week (08:30 - 18:00); and above all we remember that while the buildings have been shut, and we’ve not been able to gather together physically, Jesus is still Lord, and His church has remained live and active throughout, and will continue to do so no matter what the circumstances.

We appreciate your patience, support and prayers throughout this whole period, and look forward to being able to share our gratitude to and for each other in person soon.
