Due to the concerns for her health, St Bartholomew’s Church in #Meltham will be open between 6:00 and 7:00pm this evening (Thurs 8th September) for those who may wish to offer prayers for Her Majesty the Queen.

The Archbishop of Cantebury Justin Welby said earlier today ”My prayers, and the prayers of people across the Church of England, and the nation, are with Her Majesty The Queen today. May God’s presence strengthen and comfort Her Majesty, her family, and those who are caring for her at Balmoral.”

In the coming days we will offer additional opportunities to pray depending upon further announcements from the palace.
