This service is usually so popular that we have not one, but three Christingle services within the parish over the Christmas period!

Also, check out Family Fun Christingle at St. Paul's on Sunday 1st December.

A family friendly Christmas service exploring the story of God's love for the world and the hope that we can have through Jesus.

During the service we will make our Christingles together - using oranges to represent the world; red ribbon, symbolizing the love and blood of Jesus. Sweets and dried fruit represent all of God's creation and the lit candle represents Jesus's light in the world, bringing hope to people living in darkness.

St Matthew's Wigmore

St Matthew's Wigmore is one of four churches which make up the Parish of South Gillingham - building community, nurturing faith, and growing disciples of Jesus Christ. We are open for Worship every Sunday, at 10.30am for our main service, and at 5pm for Live@Five - a more informal gathering. The church is open each weekday morning, and there are a range of midweek groups at various times including the 139 coffee morning on Mondays - for babies and toddlers and the adults caring for them and The Place of Welcome - for anyone in the community - every Thursday morning at10am. 

The parish of South Gillingham: St Matthew is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Rochester’s safeguarding pages: www.rochester.anglican.org/safeguarding/ contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.
