The churches in Stroud were never closed during the lockdown. Some of our buildings were, but as a people, we innovated like everyone else and taught ways to continue to serve and pray for our communities and meet together in new online spaces.
Now we continue to serve and meet in new and old ways.
In response to the ‘Stay at home’ announcement on the evening of 4 January, we have reluctantly decided to close all our church buildings. However, the church in stroud is still ‘open’.

In these unprecedented times, we are working hard to find imaginative solutions in a landscape that has been rapidly changing. Sometimes we get things right, and sometimes we miss the mark. I apologise that this has been the case regarding communion.
For those of you who have received wafers in a parcel, we would ask that you either consume them, or put them somewhere safe to bring back once we are able to be together again.
We are going to be sending out a new order of service for use during this time as either a simple service of the word or, on occasion, to help us to share an Agape meal together.
We're please you want to stay in touch. If you can fill in your name and email and make sure you get our semi-regular news and updates.
