We regret that we are unable to open either St Mary’s or St Paul’s just yet because of building work taking place.
· We will continue to stream services each week mainly from St Pauls for the time being.
It is important that no one feels they must come to services if they are reluctant, for whatever reason, to mix with a group of people.
You can access the services on the link below:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCczTv99CyZnPYOy3c6SQGrw
or go to Youtube and search for Revd Philip Robinson and you will find all the services and Storytelling Services there.
You can also access them through the links on the St John's High Legh website www.stjohnshighlegh.org or sign up for our weekly News and Prayer Update.
· In the next couple of weeks we will be contacting the families who regularly come to Storytelling Services to discuss when these may begin again.
· We are live streaming services from St Mary Rostherne on some occasions.
You may have noticed that the internet connection in Rostherne is not quite up to scratch for streaming services, but we are hugely grateful to local resident, Jonathan Farber for helping us out. It has certainly been a steep learning curve for us all. If you go to Reverend Philip Robinson’s YouTube account, you will find our first-ever live-streamed service from 19th July (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0Un8PJv647Y).
Although typically the internet connection failed after 35 minutes, Jonathan was recording the service and was able to upload it later that day so please have a look.
We do hope that you will join us for more of these services and would like to encourage you to take a closer look at the scope of
Jonathan’s work.
A professional photographer and videographer with a keen interest in PR, Jonathan’s photos regularly grace the front page of local publication, the Knutsford Guardian. He specialises in creative direction and visual storytelling and loves a challenge - hence his involvement with St Mary’s. He works with a large portfolio of clients, both locally and nationally, including Tatton MP, Esther McVey. A champion of the collective economic power of small businesses, which is so important in this current climate, Jonathan also works closely with the Forum of Private Business.
The Weekly News and Prayer Update will Continue
Patricia (pmrobinson51@gmail.com) have your email address and it will be sent to you each week. It includes the link for the Service, a copy of the hymn, the reflection and readings, prayer ideas, notices with links to online meetings, and the link for the Storytelling Services, material for teenagers and the monthly Family Service.

Our Reader, Chris Stanisstreet has organised a Prayer Chain which will be done by email mainly but also and telephone. The idea behind this is that when a prayer request is made it is passed on by telephone by the people on the list who then pray for the particular
situation. If you would like to be involved in the loop or would like to make a prayer request, please let them know.
Chris Stanisstreet Tel: 01925 755559; Mobile 07918 981 723;
Email: stanbess2003@yahoo.co.uk.
A lot of contact can take place by telephone. This is a good way to help people especially those who live alone. It is also something that those over 70 or at risk can help with. Please let us know if you would like to help in this way or if you would like to receive help.
Please contact Philip and Patricia at the Vicarage about any of the above:
Tel: 01565 830 595; Mobile: 07854 418488 or
Email: pmrobinson51@gmail.com.
