Part of being Church together is the giving and sharing of tithes, talents and time.
As well as serving in our community in various roles
regularly attending gatherings as a commitment to discipleship,
members and guests are invited to live out their vocation as God's children online by regularly contributing to the resourcing of our life together by making financial offerings.

Holy Hermits Online commits to being a borderless community, welcoming all people, respectful of difference.
Embracing technology in a safe, secure space we commit to:
-
journeying, growing, exploring and discerning the Christian faith together, grounded in the Anglican tradition;
-
sharing Jesus' love through uplifting each other in community with worship, prayer, study and support; and
-
our responsibility for the attentive caretaking of creation, including our companion animals as part of our Church family.
This pledge reflects who we are as a community at September 2022 and may evolve with us over time. (Amended Pets to companion animals 2023)
Testimonials
"I have never been able to attend an Ash Wednesday service before but can attend, for the first time in 28 years, this year with Holy Hermits Online."
"I have found the services provide a warm circle of belonging and sharing. An effective time to iron out the uncertainties and downs in daily living and bring my focus back to the wider experience beyond me and now. I think the services could have a wider application beyond these times, as they are not age or circumstances specific to the listeners."
"HHO offers a wonderful safe space to worship, pray, learn and sing hymns (as loudly and/or badly as you care to). Everyone is made to feel welcome and can bring their gifts to share and celebrate. It’s a place to be genuine with our Lord and one another, and a real spiritual home from home."
"A most comforting and inspiring service with words to remember when we find ourselves in a personal desert of our own."
My present medical condition isolates me somewhat. I listen each week and value the spiritual connection Holy Hermits gives. I appreciate the effort, thought and spiritual experience needed to bring services of this high quality into being. What a wonderful outreach it is.
"The thing I love about Holy Hermits is that I can connect with the community and the services wherever I happen to be."
