Dear Friends

This feels like the last week before all the excitement and extra services of Christmas 2024 and craziness begins, although we have already had our first Pop Up Nativity and we had a great Carol singing and homemade mince pies fest at Wednesday Welcome this week.

I don’t know about you but Christmas seems to have crept up really quickly this year (always same date)😊😊. However, we cannot come to a full stop at Christmas. As a team we are still thinking about the year ahead in 2025. To give you as much notice as possible two things will be happening early in January…

Messy Church and Alpha

At the back of church this Sunday you will find the sign up sheets for the teams for Messy Church in January (see note on Welcome Sheet).

You will also see some flyers for the Alpha Course which will be running online again in January.

Please promote these things amongst your families and friends and be thinking who you can ask to take part, attend etc.

This Sunday we have a service of Communion at St James at 9.30 am

We also have a Communion service at St Mary’s at 11.15 am.

Where I look forward to welcoming you.

Don’t forget if you want to talk to me I am always available on the numbers below.

Every blessing

Alison
