Churches struggling to maintain buildings
Churches in the north of the Island are struggling to find the funds to maintain their buildings.
Public meetings to discuss the future of Lezayre and Jurby churches are due to be held over the coming weeks.
The Diocese of Sodor and Man says the congregations at the two churches have been finding the upkeep of the churches increasingly difficult.
The meetings will be chaired by the Bishop, and will take place on May 9th in Jurby Parish Hall, and May 25th in Kirk Christ, with both meetings starting at 7.30pm
