Welcome to Worship at the Rectory
Rev Chris has been putting together a service sheet with hymns, prayers, readings, and a sermon every Sunday and a few special holy days since March 2020 so you can continue worship with us within the comfort and warmth of your own home or garden. Thanks to Andy Mellett Brown and now Martin & Di from 'RadioHLR' the services which Rev Chris records at home are broadcast on this internet radio station each Sunday at 11am. Just Google 'RadioHLR' and you should find it. Afterwards an audio PODCAST is available to download from this website (usually by 1.30pm on the day of broadcast). To download any of the PODCASTs, service sheets, or the sermons since March 2020 click on the links below.
Each week members of our ministry team and others send in the intercessions which Rev Chris reads out in the service. Since we started these radio services at the end of March 2020 a large library of well over 200 sermons and audio PODCASTS has been added to, so you can return to them to enjoy again or catch up with those you missed. Just keep scrolling down until you find the ones you are looking for, they are in descending order with the oldest at the top. Its now a long way down!

AUDIO PODCASTS FROM RADIO BROADCASTS
The Sunday Radio services are put together by Rev Chris, featuring sermons and prayers written by him and others in our group of parishes. They feature songs and hymns you can sing along with, or listen to as well. There is now quite a library of PODCASTS if you want to go back and listen again. Our thanks go to Andy Mellett Brown of Heckington Living Community Radio for coming up with idea of an Internet Radio station for our village and making these Sunday service broadcasts possible.
The station broadcast lots of other interesting programmes made by local people, so do have a listen. This also includes 'Sounds on the Sunny Side' - which follows the Sunday Service each week. It is an hour or so of music from the past 60 years chosen by Rev Chris to enjoy whilst you prepare your Sunday lunch. 'Sounds on the Sunnyside' is repeated on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 9am.
