For years we’ve been saying that the Church needs to go out of
our buildings, well now we find ourselves “locked out”.
As we go into our first Sunday of social distancing, where is Church
for you today?
Where do we see God at work in our homes or communities?
How do we encounter and worship God through the disruption to our lives?
CHALLENGE – Take a photo of your experiences of finding Church, this Sunday and in the days ahead, and either post it on Burscough Methodist Facebook page or email it to me –
michael.tindsley@methodist.org.uk – and we can be strengthened by each others experiences.

Burscough Methodist Church will continue to be
“Open for Prayer” on Thursdays 7pm to 8pm,
But current advice means that it is going to be
increasingly difficult for many to come along.
Let us know if you would like us to light a candle
or add a prayer to those already being said,
and members of the Church will pray for you.

if there’s something you’d like us to pray for –
Coronavirus, the community or anything!

The world needs community like never before. In that spirit, we offer a series of prayers for community in a time of pandemic:
16 March 2020
God of the desert and God of the garden,
your son went into the wilderness.
And there he sat.
And there he prayed.
And there he dreamed
of a life more abundant for others.
As we root down for an uncertain time,
and consider how we’ve grown apart,
may we rest as needed and sprout new thoughts
for those less able to rest.
Amen.
