Many parishes might be anxious about ordering and handing out of flowers this Mothering Sunday. Rather than cancel your plans, why not do as one Diocesan church is doing and make the flowers available at the porch for people to pick-up – along with a little note?
Alternatively, for congregation members not leaving their homes, you might also wish to deliver the flowers to their doorstep.
Not only will this be a most welcomed gesture, it will also help support struggling local businesses at this very difficult time.
Is your church doing anything particular in light of the advice around social-distancing that you think would be worth sharing with others? If so, please do let us know by emailing communications@elydiocese.org
