Updated Coronavirus arrangements
It is no longer a legal requirement for those attending places of worship to wear a mask. However, you may still wish to do so out of sensitivity to the feelings of others and the current high level of infections.
When attending the service in person at Panmurefield Baptist Centre please note the following:
β’ Please do not come to the service if you have any COVID symptoms.
β’ Please do not come to the service if you or anyone in your household is self-isolating.
β’ Although social distancing is not required, please sanitise your hands on entering the building.
β’ Some windows and fire doors will be open to give maximum ventilation in the building.
β’ If you are able, it is prudent to take a Lateral Flow Test prior to attending.
β’ All the toilets are now available for use. Please sanitise your hands before going in and wipes are available to ensure itβs clean.
β’ Those who wish to give an offering, should do so by bringing the money/cheque in an envelope and placing it in the basket in the foyer. The best way of giving to the church is via bank transfer. For more information on this please get in touch with the church treasurer, bfbctreasurer@gmail.com
Ukrainian refugee fundraising – Update
Members of our church and their friends are walking 10,000 steps per day in March to raise money to accomodate Ukrainian refugees in Romania.
We are pleased to announce that 40 Ukrainian refugees are now being safely looked after at the centre in Romania π
These photographs were shared to us by Maria who runs the centre π
Every step that has been walked so far and every single penny donated has made this possible ππ
Thank you so much to everyone involved!
Please keep donating and walking so we can continue to support our friends from Ukraine πΊπ¦πππ
