‘Improving Access for All’ Appeal
Early in March every house in Amberley received an envelope giving the details of this appeal and how to contribute. Already we have had an encouraging response, although there is still a way to go.

Lent 2021, worship, reflection and engagement
Dear Friends,
As we approach the season of Lent in 2021 most of us are probably more uncertain about how the immediate future will unfold than we have ever been in our lives. Yet Lent is here again as it was last year and as it will be in years to come.
The late Henri Nouwen described Lent as a time to re-focus and to re-enter a place of truth. It is here where we find our true identity. This says that Lent is a time for reflection. This can be done with little structure. Some people may give things up for Lent, others start something new.
Ash Wednesday Worship
Dear Friends,
Ash Wednesday marks the start of Lent. There are normally two critical elements of the service; being marked on the forehead with the sign of the cross using ash and then the celebration of Holy Communion.
Advent Carol Service
Sadly we will not be able to have a 'real' Advent carol service this year. However I have put together a video 'virtual' carol service instead.
