Scattered TogetherIntroduction to the situation – Why we are online only?

 
Last Wednesday (18th March) we received instructions form Church of Ireland Head Office, complying with the stuff we are all hearing from national government, that:
– All services and church meetings are to be suspended until further notice.
– Face to face conversations should only happen with “social distance”.
– Work from home if at all possible.
– Adhere to all publicised hygiene and health practices.
No matter how inconvenient all of this may be to any of us, it is always good to think of the people we may be protecting. Do it for them. We already live by such a principle – loving our neighbour. Now we get to do it all the time.
On Sunday we are going to try to connect together online. Not everyone will be able to do this, so we are also trying to get something through the letterbox of everyone who could read a written version of what we are doing. Janice and I will broadcast from the church at 11am. If I start to sing, you have to join in!!!!
