UPDATE: Tuesday 17 March, 10:30am
As a church we have been trying to respond appropriately to the unfolding events around the Covid-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak.
Following the latest Government guidance yesterday we acknowledge that it is no longer possible for us to gather together as we would like.
Therefore, our church family won’t be meeting in person until further notice.
This includes:
However, it is not all bad news!
From this weekend we will be live streaming online services, visit falkirkvineyard.com/churchonline
We are also looking at other ways to stay connected online and to support our church family and the wider community.
The church is still open because we “are” the church so let’s take this opportunity to get creative in loving people and spreading the Good News!
Our intention is to update our website and social media platforms regularly, so please check in to see the latest information.
Much love,
Andrew & Lorraine

STATEMENT: 13 March, 12:24 PM
In light of the COVID-19 illness (Coronavirus), we wanted to let you know about steps we are taking at Falkirk Vineyard. We want people at Falkirk Vineyard to remain healthy, and we also want to look after those who may be particularly vulnerable.
In response to NHS and Public Health advice and guidance from Vineyard Churches UK and Ireland we ask that:
If you are a part of Falkirk Vineyard and you are experiencing symptoms, or have high vulnerability that leads you to self-isolate, please let us know. We want to help you in practical ways, and make sure that, while you may have to stay away from people, you are not alone.
As followers of Jesus, we believe that His perfect love casts out fear. We want to encourage you to turn to the word of God and listen for His voice of peace. Take your worries to Him (Philippians 4:4-8), let Him be your strength in times of trouble (Psalm 46) and find refuge in Him (Psalm 91)
We also want to be those who love others in our community. Jesus said that the greatest command was to love God, and love our neighbours. We want you to ask yourself – Who are those in my street or neighbourhood that may be particularly vulnerable? How can I help them and care for them? How can I share Jesus’ love for them in a time when many people are worried? Let’s look for ways to helpfully minister to those around us.
Please pray for our community, for our health professionals, for our governmental leaders, and for our nation. We believe that Jesus is the name above all names, and He is good and faithful in all circumstances.
Keep an eye out for updates by email, social media channels, and our website.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact the office at [email protected] or 07510 291787.
