As our nation continues through this period of mourning for our late Queen, we will be offering further opportunities to acknowledge her passing, both individually and corporately over the weekend before her funeral.
Below are some options we want to make available for people to respond:
- The church will be open for people to come and sit quietly to reflect, pray or light a candle in remembrance of the queen or fill in the book of condolences on Saturday 17th from 10:00am-12:00pm and on Sunday 18th from 4:00-6:00pm.
- There will be a Special Commemoration Service on Sunday 18th 6:00pm at St. George’s for those who wish to gather together to mark the queen’s passing.
- We will be showing the funeral live at St. Luke’s church on Monday 19th from 10:00am, for those who want to gather together in church to mark this important event. If you would like to stay behind afterwards, there will be a ‘Bring and Share’ finger buffet for lunch.
- If people would like to place flowers in memory of the queen, then they can be placed near or affixed to the gates of the church. These will remain in place until the day after the funeral. We will open the main central gates, please do not leave flowers in a way that will block the entrance for cars or people.
