The first South Fylde Circuit Sunday Morning Zoom Service took place last week and will continue each Sunday at 10.30 a.m. It is an opportunity for people to join the Circuit Service at The Drive from their own home or wherever they are via the internet. Please see the invitation to join for more information.
