Dear Friends

If you are counting down to Christmas using your Advent calendar or candle or study guide we have 2 weeks to go to Christmas Day as I write this, even less by the time we meet again perhaps.

This weekend sees our normal Sunday communion service at 9.30 am on Sunday 15th December at St James but we also have 2 Pop-Up Outdoor Community Carol events over the weekend.

On Saturday 14th December we have the Terling Park Community Carols at 4.00 pm (see ad)

And we also have ‘Light Up High Wych at 3.45 pm followed by our Outdoor Carol Service at 4.00 pm at St James, High Wych.

Both these outdoor services will be followed with refreshments of mulled wine, mince pies etc and we hope you will be able to join us for some Christmas fun.

I do notice looking back that in Christmas 2022 we were deep in snow and Janet, Paul and Rosemary did a marvellous job of playing in that freezing cold weather, I think even last year was extremely chilly. The forecast for this weekend is not snowy, or freezy,or rainy, or windy, it does not even look like it will be too cold. So, we look forward to welcoming you all as we gather to celebrate Christmas, singing with gusto our favourite carols.

Every blessing

Alison
