Baptisms, Weddings and Funerals                                                                                                 
Baptisms and weddings in church are suspended during the current restrictions (Tier 4). Funerals may take place but numbers will be limited to a maximum of 30 people. Music can be played but singing is not permitted.

Foodbank
The Foodbank at St. John’s Harleston has remained open throughout this crisis (Tuesday 14.00-14.45 and Friday 15.00-15.45). For more information see the Community Page of this website.

Unfortunately, the churches in this benefice are currently unable to receive Foodbank parcels directly. If you wish to donate to Foodbank please wrap your donations in a polythene bag and leave them at The Rectory, 10 Swan Lane, Harleston (next to Harleston Fire Station). They will get to the Foodbank. Please note that bringing Foodbank donations to The Rectory is an acceptable reason for leaving your house under the current lockdown regulations.
