MESSAGE FROM THE RECTOR

I hope that you have been able to avail of the slightly less restrictive protocols which came into force last Monday.  There certainly seems to have been a bit more traffic on the roads again and no doubt the garden centre and shops along with the hardware stores have been very busy!

Here in Taney we have been continuing with the painting of the interior of the Parish Centre along with one or two repair jobs which have needed attention.  The first of the parish activities to get up and running will be the Taney Lawn Tennis Club, now that tennis clubs reopened this week.  Nigel and I have started the planning for the reopening of the church at the end of July.  However, we don’t know yet what restrictions will be in place at that time with regard to allowed numbers and social distancing regulations.  We will keep you informed as we get closer to the time.

Our Sunday Service involved some of our parishioners who work in the “front line” of our Health Services.  As well as their participation, it is an opportunity to give thanks for their continued dedication in what is for them a particularly challenging world.  We admire them so much and they deserve our gratitude.  Do link in via Facebook or YouTube where our services are all archived for you to see.

We are thankful to those who have continued to support the Parish financially.  Details of how best and easiest to do this were included in Taney News Extra during the past couple of weeks.  And don’t forget you can make a donation via this website by clicking the 'Donate' link at the top right of this page.

Be Careful.  Stay Safe and Stay Well.

With every Blessing.

Robert
