Capacity in Church We are currently limited to around 25 people in church. Please let me know in advance if you are intending to come on Sunday. Fr John will only respond if there is going to be a problem with numbers. You are encouraged to wear a face covering for all services in church: please put it on when entering church, removing it after you have left.
Singing in Church It continues to be the case that ‘There should be no group singing inside places of worship when worshippers are present’.
General Guidance For those attending the service in church please remember that social distancing remains in place. Hands should be sanitised on entry and exit of church and before we receive communion. A one-way system is in place: in through the West Doors and out through the South Doors – and no loitering in church after the service. There is no requirement to wear a mask unless you are intending to sit closer than 2 metres with someone you are not in a bubble with. Communicants must receive standing, one at a time in a single file, and respect social distancing as they come forward. The host will be placed in the hand, avoiding physical contact and no words (e.g. 'The Body of Christ') are to be spoken.
Discussion Group On Thursday 23rd July at 12.30 (for 45 minutes) we will be holding an informal discussion group with St Stephen’s about ‘the worldwide communion’. For more information please email Fr John.
Said Mass will be said on Saturday 25th July in church (and on zoom) at 10am for the Festival of St James the Apostle

Please check the pew sheet below, for exact services during the current week . The gathered communities from St Barnabas and St Stephen's (and those linked in any way, shape or form) are continuing to say the Office of Morning and Evening Prayer together. Fr John has teamed up with The Revd Graham Buckle (Vicar of St Stephen's Rochester Row) and The Revd Lindsey Meader (Lead Theatre Chaplain). Anyone, from any parish can join us, from anywhere in the world! There are two different zoom links. This is purely because Graham and I both have zoom accounts.

We are facing uncertain times where we are being pushed out of our usual comfort zones, and possibly spending more time on our own that we would like. We are here to serve and encourage everybody in this these extreem times. On a practical front, Fr John is happy to talk to people by phone, skype, email or text. Whilst he can't guarantee to be available all of the time, he will definitely get back to you as soon as he can. He is also happy to receive prayer requests by text of or email. Please be assured of our prayers for the whole of the community. Welcome to St Barnabas Church, Pimlico Road (between Victoria Coach Station and Sloane Square). contact details and map here St Barnabas Church is an Anglican Church which is very welcoming: please come and join us! We have a number of services and events each week. We are a small (and growing) inclusive church community - welcoming all. Our parish has been ‘serving and encouraging’ people living, working and passing through the area since 1850. It is a beautiful Grade 1 listed church - and well worth a visit. We are actively involved in our parish school and we are seeking greater engagement with the local and wider community. Our Parish Priest, Fr John Pearson-Hicks joined St Barnabas in September 2015 and since becoming the ‘full-time’ priest (Sept 2017) we have been able to be open more regularly and hold more events and services. If you would like to find out more about baptisms and weddings, or if you would just like to have a conversation about what we are doing, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly on john.pearson-hicks@london.anglican.org to arrange a time to talk. Mission Action Plan 2020-2023 Ultimately we want to share the love of God with as many people as we can through being open and active and in serving the people of the parish; those who live, work, worship or pass through each day, and to encourage people in their faith journey with Jesus Christ and to give opportunity to challenge one another in our thinking.
