Aside from the special pattern over Holy Week and Easter, our services remain online only for the time being, with a 9.30am zoom service every Sunday. The service on the last Sunday of the month is usually a zoom Eucharist.
For members of our congregations who do not have access to online worship but wish to explore other possibilities, please contact Jane on 01869 340510.
Please email zoom@bartonbenefice.org.uk for log-in details for any Zoom service.
If you, or anyone you know may need help – spiritual or practical (or with zoom!) – please get in touch with one of the Ministry Team or your churchwarden. Contact details are on the Who's Who page.
It is so important for us all to stay connected: please do not hesitate to get in touch if you feel in need of extra support.

"Be still, and know that I am God"
Psalm 46:10
Following the death of Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, we hold Her Majesty the Queen and all the Royal Family in our prayers. We give thanks for Prince Philip’s life, for his commitment to duty and service, and his Christian faith.
Our churches will all be open this weekend for private prayer and reflection. There is an online book of condolence which can be signed here.
God of our lives,
we give thanks for the life of Prince Philip,
for his love of our country,
and for his devotion to duty.
We entrust him now to your love and mercy, through our Redeemer Jesus Christ. Amen.
