Our 3pm FREE EVENT on Christmas Eve is very popular and we are thrilled that our two live donkeys will be joining us again, with petting and photo opportunities after the service. Join us for the retelling of the Christmas nativity story. We invite the children to come dressed as their favourite nativity character - a star, sheep, shepherds, angels, Mary, Joseph, the kings, a donkey - whatever - as we recreate that wonderful nativity scene! This is a magical event for the whole family on the afternoon of Christmas Eve.
