Now that restrictions have been lifted, we welcome all who wish to attend our morning worship “In person”.
There will be a regular Communion service at 9.00am and Morning Worship at 11.00am.
We are pleased to announce that congregations are now allowed to sing!! However...
As the pandemic is far from over, we would encourage all who attend to continue to practice social distancing and strongly recommend that masks continue to be worn if at all possible.
We will of course be keeping all this under review, as further government announcements are made, and will adapt accordingly.
Our 11.00am livestreamed and recorded worship will continue and can be accessed by clicking the buttons
and following the links below.
The following link will take you to the recording of today's 11am Morning Worship on YouTube.
!! Christianity Explored !!
What's the best news you've ever heard?
Was it surprising? Did it change the way you think? Or was it something you wanted to be true but didn't dare hope?
Christianity Explored is a relaxed and informal way of sharing the best news you can ever hear, and gives people space and time to think about the big questions of life.
Over seven sessions (and an away day) with Mark’s Gospel, guests find out more about the life of the person at the heart of the Christian faith – Jesus Christ.
Who’s it For?
Anyone. Anyone wanting to learn about Christianity, to further their understanding, or just asking the question - what do I believe?
It is ideal as a next step if you have previously been on an Alpha course, but people can equally come from scratch.
Rev Stephen Beach is offering two additional weeks at the end of the course for anyone wanting to explore Confirmation.
When & Where?
Starts Monday 4th October, 7.30pm - Lower Hall, St Budeaux Church Community Hall, PL5 2HN

Jigsaws to your doorAre you feeling bored or anxious? Have you still got that ‘shut in’ feeling?
In these stressful days, jigsaws are remaining popular as a way of passing the time or taking your mind off what is going on at the moment.
Several people have commented on how much this simple pastime has helped them.
We are offering a free delivery / collection service from our Jigsaw Library to those in the PL5 area.
For more information contact Lyn and Ted on 01752 706728 or email jigsaws (jigsaws@st-budeaux-church.co.uk)
