Hi Church,
This week it feels like we can see a wee bit of light at the end of the lockdown tunnel. Though not a lot will change at the moment between how we do church at Level 4 vs Level 3. We look even further ahead to Level 2 where we can again meet in our House Church Groups, but until then it’s business as “usual”, so hang in there!

Sunday Service 10am: Pastor Nelson will be preaching this week and afterwards will be going Facebook Live to answer all your tricky questions at 11.00 am on Sunday, so tune in and chat with the preacher. There will be a link to the Facebook Live session under the sermon.
Anytime: if you or anyone you know needs any practical or prayer support, please be in touch with your home group leader, one of the staff or one of the Elders, we’re to here to help.
This week continue to keep the faith, keep persevering, keep looking to God and keep praying for one another. Remember who God is and that all those in the faith are His dearly loved children.
God bless,
The Orchard Church Elders and Staff
