Welcome!
Thank you for visiting our 'online-presence'.
We are passing through a storm in uncharted waters these weeks, and though we are separate, we are also together - in the same boat, sharing in the unique experience that is the Covid-19 storm in which we live.
And He is with us in the boat...

Covid-19 and Wellspring
From 23rd March 2020 churches had to close their doors. But Christians are not people who 'go to church' : they ARE the church. So we invited you all to join us on our website in spending some time (at home?) doing and being church in ways that felt right for you. We were creating communities like those of the first Christians in the early
church, just doing it online.
Then from 9th September the Government announced stricter limits on social gatherings, but exempted ‘Covid-secure’ places of worship from these restricitions; since we had thoroughly prepared to re-open for worship so from mid-September we are open in our building for covid-secure worship.
As it is necessary to limit our numbers (social distancing), we have divided our congregation into two groups - those living in odd-numbered houses and those in even-numbered houses.
The service on 27th September is based on a 'Creation Sunday' YouTube presentation put together by Paul Heppleston; it will be repeated on 4th October.
The shape and style and practice of our coming together will be very different to pre-Covid days but we felt it was now right to begin to include 'Worship-in-Wellspring' in our activities. Online worship will continue for a while alongside the buildings-based gatherings. As before these will be accessed by clicking on the gold button above.
