93 children and 591 adults attended Christmas services across the 7 churches and 11 services.

In addition 268 children and 316 adults attended the 4 School Christmas Services/ Nativities in churches.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to these services by preparing churches, decorating, leading, welcoming, publicising, looking after sound, and clearing away. It is an impressive achievement for a modest sized parish of 4,400 residents.

Offering welcome is intrinsic to our Christian life, and welcoming new neighbours is part of our church life.

The Five Alive has produced a welcome card with details of its churches and activities, the website and the name of the local church warden. We would like everyone who has a new neighbour to ask their warden for a card and then to visit the new residents, to introduce themself on behalf of the Five Alive, and welcome them to the local community.

A similar card for Bishampton and Throckmorton is possible for later this year.
