If you are unable to read on a particular day, please try to swap with someone else on the rota and let Paul Lewin know. Please sit near the front when you are due to read. The first reader should go to the lectern towards the end of the Gloria (or the Kyries in Advent and Lent) The second reader should go to the lectern during the last response to the Psalm. The readings for the following Sunday will usually be available on the website. Please check the book on the lectern when you arrive. It is easier to read from this than the pew sheet.

To speed up loading of this page, next Sunday's readings have been moved to a separate page
