A Message from the South Croydon Benefice 

 

 

We are committed to supporting the whole community during this difficult time, and extend our prayers to all who are sick, anxious, or working to assist those in need.

If we can help, please contact a member of the ministry team; we are looking at ways of offering practical assistance to those who are self-isolating.

All public worship and activities are suspended until further notice, but we can still pray together! Please download our 'Prayer at home' booklet.

On Sunday, the Eucharist will be celebrated in private, and I hope to upload the video to YouTube so that you can watch at home.

Following recent guidance from the Diocese the two Churches will not be open for private prayer. 
If you haven't already, join our mailing list so that we can keep in touch and share resources:
