Candlemas

St Margaret's Spaxton
Church Road Spaxton Bridgwater, TA5 1DA, United Kingdom

What is Candlemas?
In the middle of winter Christians celebrate Jesus as bringing Light to the World. As Jewish tradition required, Mary and Joseph presented the Infant to the Temple in Jerusalem, which we now celebrate through Candlemas. At St Margaret's we will be lighting and blessing the candles used in Church as well as ones held by the congregation.

We are a friendly group and wellcome everyone with much faith or little.
