About the church family

​​We are a varied and friendly congregation seeking to know more of Christ and walk with Him in our village and in the world.
In normal times, we meet regularly for worship, usually on Sundays at 9.30am and 6pm, and welcome everyone who would like to join us.
For latest news see our Facebook feed on the right.  Below is our church diary, all events are held in church unless shown otherwise.

Sunday services

Currently we are able to have services in church following guidelines, and also some of our worship takes place via Zoom.
 
When services "in person" are allowed, please take note of these guidelines:

Enter and leave the building through the South Door.
Sanitize your hands on entering and leaving the building.
Observe 2m social distancing.
Sit only in allocated places.
No physical contact with those outside your household, no Sharing the Peace.
We strongly advise that face coverings should be worn by all those attending a place of worship, including ministers, worshippers, staff, volunteers, contractors and visitors, where there may be other people present; remembering that they are mainly intended to protect other people, not the wearer, from coronavirus COVID-19 and that they are not a replacement for physical distancing and regular hand washing.​
Follow instructions on the distribution of communion.
No singing is allowed, please don’t raise your voice either.
Please use the slip of paper to record your presence at the service for test and trace, details will be given on the slip and in the notices.
When you go out please be mindful that you don’t block the exit door and other people’s paths (maintain the 2m social distancing).

Evening Services: Zoom Compline at 6pm every other Sunday.

​The 2021 Great Big Christian Aid Village Walk (Colerne) 

2021 is Christian Aid’s 75th Anniversary; seventy five years of bringing
support and hope to the poorest people around the world. This year’s featured project aims to support  people in Africa who are facing poverty, hunger and homelessness because of climate change. Excessive flooding followed by periods of drought have caused devastating crop failures. You can discover more about the work of Christian Aid on their website www.christianaid.org.uk 

Colerne has a tradition of fundraising for Christian Aid in May.  We felt that this year, because of the pandemic, door to door collections would not be appropriate. Instead, some of our group completed a sponsored walk of 55.5 miles around the local Peacock and Heritage Trails.  The final total of money raised (including gift aid) by the Colerne Team was £2,018.93!  A huge thank you to all walkers, organisers, givers, risk assessors and everyone who has supported in any way.
