Christingle

for 1 hour
St Albans Cathedral
Sumpter Yard, St Albans, AL1 1BY, United Kingdom
The Christingle service is a yearly tradition which takes place in the lead up to Christmas. It uses a special symbol, a decorated orange, to explore the story of God’s love for the world at Christmas. Each element of the decorated orange has symbolic value, and during the service candles are lit to represent Christ's light.

This service is in support of the Children's Society, and particularly welcomes children and families.

No tickets required.

St Albans Cathedral

St Albans Cathedral is the oldest site of continuous Christian worship in Britain and stands over the place where Alban, Britain's first saint, was buried after giving his life for his faith over 1700 years ago. Down the centuries, countless pilgrims have come to honour the saint’s sacrifice and offer their prayers at his shrine – and they still come in their thousands today.

St Albans Cathedral is open, we look forward to welcoming you very soon. Please visit our website for more information: www.stalbanscathedral.org
