Thoughts From Bob

​

Yes, there is fear but there does not need to be hate 

​

Yes, there is isolation but there does not need to be loneliness

​

Yes, there is panic buying but there does not need to be greed

 

Yes, there is sickness but there does not need to be disease of the soul

​

Yes, there is even death but there can always be rebirth of love

​

O Come, O Come Emmanuel

​

Closing Remarks and Prayer

​

​

​

We cannot come together as we would like but we suggest

you put the kettle on, phone a friend and hopefully you can 

discuss the service together and find comfort

​

Thanks For Joining Us
