An opportunity to share in a quiet mid-morning service, held in one or other of the various chapels within the church.

A short, said service, usually held in the Lady Chapel (the one in the picture - with a number of furnishings and fittings by Sir Ninian Comper, no less). The Cell of Our Lady of Walsingham meets each month, and dates of Cell Masses are usually published on the weekly pew-sheet.

Time for another Quiz Night, so here we go - admission £5 per person (includes a light supper - bring your own drinks!). Teams of 6 - 8, or just come and join a team. Call 07837 244808 for further details.

Our day's worship begins with said Morning Prayer, usually from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer.

Our main act of worship each week, when we gather to hear God's Word proclaimed, and to receive Holy Communion. We use the modern-language form of service, with a modicum of traditional Catholic ceremonial to foster a sense of the mystery of the Mass. We usually sing a mixture of traditional and more modern hymns, together with a simple congregational Mass setting, led by our cantor(s) and volunteer organist/pianist.

Children and young people are encouraged to stay for the whole service, as it is not possible to have a separate Sunday School at present. For young families, there is a 'safe space' especially for them, with room to move around.

The Ministry of Christian Healing is available by arrangement with Father Garry, as is the Sacrament of Reconciliation (aka Confession).

A service of Evening Prayer, usually concluding with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. (Holy Communion from the Reserved Sacrament is available, if you've missed Mass earlier in the day - please speak to whoever is leading the service).

A short late-afternoon service in one of our various chapels.

A Mass for the early-birds (!).

We begin the season of Advent this morning, with the Blessing of the Advent Wreath, and the lighting of the first candle. Our usual Advent devotional booklets will be available - free of charge - at the back of the church.

An informal study group, looking at our Advent booklet *Look to the Light*, held on three Mondays in Advent (2nd/9th/16thDecember) after the 10am Mass, and ending at round 1115am. Bring your ACS booklet (available FREE in church) and a Bible, although these can be provided for you.

At today's Walsingham Cell Mass we pray especially for the Shrine in Norfolk, its staff and pilgrims, and for the members of our own Cell.

Our monthly Youth Club, with a variety of games and craft activities, meets again today for a Christmas party. The event usually includes a short seasonal act of worship in the Church. Ages 7-16 welcome - qualified DBS-checked staff supervising. Parents/carers are also welcome to stay for all or part of each event - children under 7 are also welcome, but must be accompanied by a responsible adult.

Begin your Christmas celebrations with us at this service of seasonal carols, Bible readings, and prayers.

Our Christmas Fair takes place today in the Hall, immediately after the service. Many stalls - seasonal crafts, gifts, 'nearly new', toys, books etc., and refreshments. Admission FREE!

Our preparation for Christmas continues with this simple late-afternoon service intended especially for younger people - but everyone is very welcome to join in...

Children are invited to come dressed up as Nativity People - shepherds, angels, kings, stable animals (!) or sheep...be as inventive as you wish!

Christmas proper begins with the *Midnight Mass*, or First Mass of Christmas Day, with its traditional readings, Blessing of the Crib, and carols.

We continue to celebrate the Birth of Christ, as we meet this morning for a simple Mass, with Prayers at the Crib.

We meet in the peace and quiet of the day after Christmas to celebrate St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr - a reminder that following the Babe of Bethlehem can be costly.

We continue to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ at this morning's service, beginning with a visit to the Crib, and any children present are invited to have a look around the church, to see if they can spot how far the Wise Men have progressed on their journey to Bethlehem! (Clue: Examine the window-sills.....). There is a Bring & Share buffet lunch after Mass - ALL WELCOME!

Need some quiet time and space for prayer after the busy-ness of Christmas? This simple, unhurried Mass, celebrating Mary the Mother of God, and the Naming of Jesus, would be a good start to the New Year.

We continue to celebrate the Visit of the Magi, or Wise Men, or Three Kings, at this morning's Mass - which will, hopefully. include a Procession of the Kings... Children are invited to make sure that the figures of the Wise Men, journeying around the Church, have reached their destination safely!

A good place to meet friends and neighbours, a good time to pick up a bargain - bric-a-brac, toys, gifts, clothes, books - and to enjoy lunch, brunch, and other tasty refreshments. Admission FREE!

Join us for tea/coffee/brunch/lunch/cakes at very reasonable prices! We also have a number of stalls - bric-a-brac/books/toys/clothes etc.
