If you know someone who would like to attend this service in the physical church building, please do get in touch as we can accommodate a few people in church.

Annual All Souls’ Day Service – a Time of Remembering:

Each year we remember those how have gone before us, and particularly this year, it has an added poignancy both for those who have sadly lost loved ones during this time of the pandemic and also for those who have felt the loss of loved ones during this time from years past more acutely because of the Lockdown and isolation.

We are going to be holding two All Souls’ Day Services over the coming weeks:

For Banwell on the Sunday 25th October at 4.00pm

For Congresbury on Sunday 1st November also at 4.00pm

Anyone is very welcome to join us online as Kirsty and the Technology Team will be Livestreaming both services.  (As to how to do this Please see Kirsty’s instructions below)  PLEASE ALSO have a candle available to light at home as part of the service.

We also have space for a small number of people to attend physically, based on the usual Worship Guidelines for both Churches. But, PLEASE you will need to let us know, in advance that this is you wish.  You can do so via email, phone, or by dropping us a line (see details below).

If you would like your loved one’s name read out as part of the service, please can you let us know again by email, phone, or by dropping us a line.  Due to the service being online as well this year, we can only read out those names we have been given permission to read so WE NEED YOU to get in touch and let us know – doing so complies then with GDPR rules.

  • for email – Lisa Stannard at lisa.stannard@newcreationchurches.org.uk
