Worship
We have resumed in-person worship!
All the usual requirements will be in place as before. In addition, please bring and wear a mask.
We have a QR Code and encourage everybody to download the Service NSW app.
Our greeters will be asking everybody if they have been out of the area during the previous 14 days and following up if the answer is "yes."
However, we also offer worship via Zoom. If you wish to join our Zoom service, please email secretary@berryuniting.org for an invitation.
The service on the first Sunday of the month is usually a Communion Service.
