Welcome to St Guthlac's Knighton, Leicester
Welcome to St. Guthlac's Church.
Those of you who visit our website regularly might notice a difference, we have recently updated our website. It still has all the same information but it is now "cleaner looking" and appears more modern. It also displays very well on a smartphone. The main reason for the change is that the website is now residing on a more up-to-date server, making managing it, much simpler! We hope you like it.
CHURCH IS CHANGING BACK
July 2025
Caring for each other at church during infectious times
Our Worship Committee, on behalf of the PCC, continue to discuss the precautions we should take at St Guthlac’s. We would urge everyone to continue thinking about the best ways to ensure that illnesses are not spread at church, for instance staying at home if you feel unwell. Please also continue to be understanding of those people whose response to the hazards of the virus is different to your own.
We continue to offer the wine as well as the bread to everyone through "Simultaneous Communion" at Sunday morning Eucharists - if you would like to take it. "Simultaneous Communion" means that the priest will take each wafer one at a time and dip the edge into the chalice of wine, before placing it in the Communicants hands as usual. This allows for the sharing of wine from a Common Cup, but without the hazards of each person actually using the Cup themselves.
Thank you for your understanding and co-operation with these changes and precautions – this way we can remain both safe and welcoming!
