Café Church
Join us on 7th Feb for Café Church Online!
St. Giles Cafe Church is a relaxed style of meeting which encourages conversation and reflection on a different theme each month. Activities are offered for children. There is a bit of music, some thought-provoking input often using pictures or video resources, and a short prayer time. It is very open-ended - come and go as you wish. Pre-COVID, Cafe Church met in the Peace Memorial Hall. We are currently meeting online via Zoom. The link for this event will be shared via our mailing list, if you are not signed up and would like to join in, please email This email address is being protected from spambots.

Covid Scams
As the COVID vaccination programme is rolled out, please be aware that some scams are circulating by phone, text and email. Please do not click on any links they contain. They will lead you to a very convincing page, but at the end will ask you to pay for the vaccine. The Government vaccination programme is free and you cannot jump the queue by paying for it. Those who are eligible for the vaccine first will receive a letter and/or an email with an invitation to ring for an appointment.
Resources for Private Worship are available and updated weekly, other reflections and resources are available on the St Mary's Welwyn website: https://www.welwyn.org.uk/covid-19-updates
