Christingle is a joyful celebration that brings families and communities together to share the light of Jesus and spread a message of hope. Christingle celebrations are named after the Christingles that are lit during the ceremony.
Christingles are oranges wrapped in red tape, decorated with dried fruit or sweets, with a candle on the top.
Each element of a Christingle has a special meaning and helps to tell the Christian story:
* The orange represents the world
* The red ribbon (or tape) symbolises the love and blood of Christ
* The sweets and dried fruit represent all of God’s creations
* The lit candle represents Jesus’s light in the world, bringing hope to people living in darkness.
