Our Volunteers

Thought for the Week: Though no-one can go back and make a new start, anyone can start from now and make a new ending.

Stewarding

Changes to Stewarding.

With effect from 1st July 2023 we will be changing the Stewarding role to a simpler Welcoming role. There will no longer be a need to gel your hands (unless you wish too). The Newsletter, mass book and hymnal will still be distributed ... along with a smile 😁

-----

1. There will be 1 steward in the porch to ‘Meet and Greet’ and sanitise hands (if required) before mass.

2. Stewards will no longer guide people out for Holy Communion. We ask that the congregation ‘self regulate’ the movement from the benches to the altar, come out in an orderly fashion a bench at a time, starting at the front and not the back as we have been doing, and avoid standing queues in the aisles.

3. Stewards will no longer guide people out at the end of mass. Again, we ask that the congregation ‘self regulate’ the movement from the benches out of the church, a bench at a time, starting from the back. We ask that you avoid congestion when going through the glass doors leading out into the porch area. We also ask that you do not gather in the porch, but make your way out through the porch to the outside of church. This will allow for a steady flow of people out of the church and avoid ‘grouping’ which slows things down.

We appreciate your co-operation.

Deacon Jim.

Duties

Thanks for continuing to be a welcoming face here at St Peter and Michael's. It's nice for people to see a friendly face and to be welcomed as they arrive for mass. It makes their day.

Please Count the number of people in church and enter into the book in the porch.

If you are unable to do the dates allocated to you, please arrange a swap with another of the stewards
