The new national lockdown which is to be introduced by the UK government on 5th November in response to the second wave of the current pandemic, requires all churches and places of worship to cease from holding public services until the infection and death rate declines and the new lockdown eventually ceases. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/new-national-restrictions-from-5-november. Sadly, therefore all public services at our British Orthodox Churches will now be suspended although our clergy will continue to uphold their faithful in prayer.
