In the light of the latest lockdown and the Government's advice to stay at home, we regret to say that Sunday worship has been suspended by the PCC until 28th February at the earliest. These decisions have been taken by Churchwardens and Church Council members purely on the basis of people's safety. Please contact the Rector David Seymour if you would like to be included to receive weekly worship material on 01208 850088.

Church services at St Mabyn for this month
Just to let you know that as we are now in Tier 3 of Covid regulations, our church can remain open for services as previously but, in line with hospitality covid guidelines, our church cafe must remain firmly closed, so no hot coffee afterwards I'm afraid.
The church services at St Mabyn for this month are as follows:
Sunday 3rd - Morning Prayer with Robin
Sunday 17th - Holy Communion with Steve.
I hope you have all heard the good news today that the Oxford vaccine will be rolled out very soon, so there is light on the horizon. My sleeve is already rolled up!
Very Best Wishes all for a very Happy and Healthy Christmas,
Jan
Secretary for St Mabyn church

Armistice Day
We are very sorry and regret to announce that after careful reading of the new Government Guidelines and the Church of England Guidelines we are having to cancel the outdoor ceremony on Armistice Day.
Monday, 2 November 2020
Private prayer on Wednesday and Sunday mornings from 10-12noon.
Due to the new Covid guidelines and Lockdown, unfortunately services in church will now cease until further notice. Following our recent PCC meeting however, it was decided that the church will open for private prayer on Wednesday and Sunday mornings from 10-12noon. On Sundays, I will be in church to play gentle, reflective music from the great CD collection that I have been loaned by folks. I hope we can have some candles lit and that the prayer tree can come back into it's own and will be laden with prayers over the next few weeks. Prayer can be so sustaining for us and even better in our beautiful church surroundings.
As always, please follow Covid guidelines when entering the church - there will be one new one, (a small TICKET for you to lay down on the chair where you have sat to avoid cross contamination for future users in the session) and as always, please do not come if you are feeling unwell.
