Christingle

Wargrave St Mary's
Mill Green, Station Road Wargrave Reading, RG10 8EU, United Kingdom

The first Sunday of Advent and an opportunity for our young families to worship together at our All Age service, which will also be our Christingle service.

A Christingle usually consits of the orange (the world), a red ribbon around it which reminds us that Jesus died for us, four cocktail sticks representing the four seasons and which are often adorned with sweets or dried fruits to represent all of God's creations. Finally, the candle in the middle reminding us of Jesus.
Christingle: Christ's Light
Don't forget to join us after the service for brunch in the Church Centre

Wargrave St Mary's

St Mary's is located in the heart of the large village of Wargrave and is beautifully situated beside Mill Green. It is the oldest (parts dating back to the 12th Century) and biggest of the three Churches in the Parish.

Our vision at St Mary’s is to be a church at the heart of our community, and our hope is that every Christian will be empowered at St Mary’s to flourish in ministry for the good of the whole community.

There are two services each Sunday: 8am and 9.45am, as well as Junior Church (0-3 years Crèche, 3-16 years Junior Church)

Close by, The Hannen Room and St Mary's Church Centre are within the churchyard for use throughout the year.
