Parish Magazine for February 2021

Hello and welcome to February’s edition of the #Meltham Parish magazine. In this edition you will find updates from the Crossroads and details of their new initiative to brighten up the shop window. There is interesting information about postal slogans along with the new daily prayers for Lent. The Churches may be closed but God still listens!

As always a thank you to those who have contributed but we still need more content for next month, so send in how you’ve been creative or those jokes or stories you’ve heard or the poems you’ve written to help keep this magazine going and bring a smile to readers faces. The next deadline will be Friday 19th February.

We have managed to get copies printed for you this month so if you need a copy for your friends please do collect from the usual distribution points or contact your church warden.

Update on services in our church buildings

Due to the high number of Covid-19 cases still being recorded locally, it has been decided to continue the pause in services being held in our parish church buildings for the time being.

Online services will however still take place and continue to be available both on YouTube and Zoom. Links to these online services and any news as to when the church buildings might reopen will be posted on the website and social media sites.

Stay home, protect the NHS, save lives.
