I would like to say a big THANK YOU to all who supported our Christmas Tree Festival this year: especially to the organising committee headed up by David Bullock, and to all those who served on stalls, on the door, serving refreshments, helping to set up trees and take them down etc. So much goes on behind the scenes to make this event a success and it was a great success this year. It was wonderful to see so many people (several hundred) come through our doors, despite the cold weather and the cancellation of the Christmas light switch-on in the town centre. We presented a prize to the the Friends of Victoria Gardens, the winner of the tree competition. We raised approximately £2,500 for church funds this year, which is a fantastic result! Thank you all for your support.Revd Rebecca
Christian BasicsWe have had many visitors to our churches during December and the Christmas period. If anyone would like to explore matters of faith and what Christians believe, please be in touch with me. There is some interest in doing a short course online in the New Year. So if you have questions about Christianity and would like to explore your faith, or you have any questions, please be in touch with me very soon. This could lead to baptism and/or Confirmation at a later date for any who are interested. We look forward to hearing from you.Revd Rebecca Harris, Rector
