During the service, each person takes a Christingle and the candles are all lit to create a warm, magical glow symbolising the light of Christ and bringing hope to people living in darkness.

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.

A service of All Age worship with Music Group and ctivities

This is our group for pre-school children and their carers. We have a wonderful group of helpers who do a great job making everyone, both children and carers, feel welcome and cared for. We welcome children from birth to school-age. We meet in St Michael’s Church, once a month on a Monday morning, from 10am to 11.30am. Our sessions begin with play and chat. Children have the chance to do a craft activity and colouring, linked to the Bible story we are having that month. After refreshments, which include home-made cake, we have a Bible story and some songs before we finish with a prayer.
