The church clock has stopped

Perhaps this is appropriate.  We had been leaving the church open so that individuals could find space to pray alone.  But since then all church buildings have been asked to remain shut as part of the total discouragement for people to leave their homes.  Anyway, someone going out to access the church tower to wind the clock wouldn’t count as travelling to do essential work.  The church’s tower is silent and the gives the wrong time – the scattered church prays on ‘at all times and in all places’ (including brontevirtualchurch.blogspot.com).
