The South Fylde Circuit is starting a Sunday Morning Zoom Service at 10.30 a.m. on the 2nd August led by the Circuit Staff. Please see the invitation to attend for more information. Deadline for booking is 9.00 p.m. on Friday each week. This allows time for us to issue joining details and make sure we can accommodate everyone.
While our church building is closed for all activities we are highlighting some of the many opportunities for worship with a focus on those that are easily available, knowing those with internet access have access to a huge amount of material, far more than we can list so we have listed some of those with a local connection. Please note this offer changes and updates more regularly than we can keep up with so please note, to the best of our knowledge, it was accurate when compiled but it may change so please check the programme schedules on the day.
The Drive Methodist Church will be opening for a Circuit Morning Worship on 9th August at 10.30 a.m. led by the Circuit Staff. The Service will be different, shorter, no singing …… in order to be compliant with Government guidelines and you will need to book in. Details about the Service and how to book in will be circulated on Thursday 6th August. Please pray for the preparations.

Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”
