COVID-19 UPDATE
|
On Tuesday 18th March we received the Church of England's advice to suspend public worship. This means that until further notice the SPC family will not be gathering in person for any services, events or meetings. |

Although things look a little bit different now, there is still lots happening!
Our leadership and staff team's focus right now is on providing and supporting prayer and worship, pastoral care and ensuring we have good communication with the church. Please do get in contact with us if you are in need of support!

INFORMATION & ADVICE
The NHS is advising people with these symptoms to stay at home for 7 days: a high temperature (you feel hot to touch on your chest or back) and/or a new, continuous cough (this means you've started coughing repeatedly). We are also advised to stay at home for 14 days if we come into contact with anyone who contracts Covid-19, or if our symptoms persist after the original 7.
There is much conflicting information out at the moment, so these are the websites we suggest you to refer to for reliable information and advice:

HOPE
Even as we prepare and plan for the next few weeks and months, it is vital that we keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, just as we have done in previous difficult times. God loves us, he is with us by his Spirit and he will never leave nor forsake us - so let's pursue love, kindness, strength and peace in his name. We will keep the beacon of our faith shining through prayer, worship, bible study, and community with one another, and we will look forward to the day we can meet together as the SPC family under one roof again.
Be assured of our love and prayers, church family.
