Covid19 Virus Special Notice:

In these unusual times, as a vestry and under advice from Bishop Peter and our Government, we are suspending worship for the time being effective immediately.

With many vulnerable healthwise in our church family we think this is the best decision to make.

We are working on ways to support you and will put resources on this website and email updates. For those not on email we will be getting in touch with you personally and dropping resources to you.

We have attached basic information about the Covid 19 virus and how to take care and here is a link to the Govt website that presents it in a more visual way.

St David’s Anglican Church is located at 831 Main North Road, Belfast, Christchurch. The church, designed in 1902, and officially opened in 1903, replaced an earlier structure built in c1855. The church has significance as the site of one of the city’s earliest places of worship; as a site of Anglican worship in the present church for over a century, as a fine early Arts and Crafts church, and one of the few churches designed by prominent architect Samuel Hurst Seager.

Built as a memorial to the early settlers of Belfast, there is a need to retain the cultural, spiritual and architectural significance of this building and preserve it for future generations.

Welcome to everyone.

I encourage you at 10am to sit down in your favourite armchair with a cup of tea and read the readings for the day, listen to the song links or sing your favourite hymns or songs (see below) and read the sermon notes, pray and be still and know that God is with us all and will see us through these unusual times.

‘God is our Refuge and strength and underneath are his everlasting arms.'

See Past Sermons page for previous Sundays.

Kia Kaha- be strong in the Lord.

Peace and love from your Jo, and your clergy and vestry team.
