This is a service to remember all those who we know have died recently as well as those who ae no longer with us but still in our hearts.
We have an opportunity to remember them as we light a candle and the names are read out to be in our prayers.

If you cannot be at the Service but would like us to pray for someone please contact Re Mike Birt or Sue Birt and they will take the name of the person so a prayer could be said for them.

For the 1st Sunday in Advent we will be having our Christingle Service. This is a joyful celebration bringing our families and communities together to share the light of Jesus and spread the message of hope.
Christingle mean's Christ's light. During the Service we will all have an opportunity to make a Christingle which is made with an orange, a candle. a red ribbon and 4 sticks with fruit and sweets. When these have been made, we dim the Church lights and stand around in a circle and light our Christingles. The service ends with singing an uplifting song full of hope which is particularly relevant for the start of Advent and the message brought by the Angel to Jesus' mother, Mary.
