November saw us prepare and send off 20 shoeboxes at our cafe church via Teams4U. We are proud to support this wonderful charity.
We commemorated remembrance with a wonderful service which included the 2 minutes silence and laying of a wreath at our war memorial
The month ends with our uplifting Songs of Praise and cheese and wine social on 30th November at 6pm. We will be celebrating the start of advent at this service too.
Coming up in December we will be meeting in the pub in Drakes Broughton on Thursday 4th at about 6pm for carol singing. Come along and join us to kick start the festive season. We will be continuing our Advent theme at our more relaxed cafe church on 7th December at 10;30am. Families love this service as it is slightly more informal and there is plenty to do for the children. We have people of all ages at this service and it is growing really well.
Our carols by candlelight service is a beautifully atmospheric service of traditional carols and readings to celebrate Christmas. We follow it with mulled wine and mince pies.
On Christmas Eve we hold our crib and christingle service at 4pm. This is always a very popular service where we place the figures in the crib and present Christingles. the service lasts about 40 minutes and is a great way of reminding everyone of the meaning of Christmas.
We do not hold a midnight service in our parish but visitors are encouraged to go to Pershore Abbey where a traditional Midnight Eucharist is celebrated at 23:15 and is seen as the first Eucharist of Christmas.
We do have a family Eucharist on Christmas Day at 9.30am
We hope to see you at some or all of the above and wish you a very merry Christmas
