Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life '' John 8 v 12 ESV'With great pleasure Friends of St Mary’s announce that Swineshead St Mary’s Church is illuminated during the hours of darkness. The old spot lights have been replaced with LED so we can light up the Church throughout the Winter. Look how beautiful the market place is now the church illuminates the heart of the village after dark.'' ref. Friends of St Mary's church Swineshead Facebook Page. For many years over the Christmas period the church building has been illuminated thanks to an anonymous donor for which we express our gratitude. Installation of the new LED lamps will enable the church to be illuminated throughout the year during the hours of darkness at the same cost.
