Christingle

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
St. Mary the Virgin, Rolvenden
Address
Church of St. Mary the Virgin Rolvenden Cranbrook Kent, TN17 4ND, United Kingdom

A service for families with the children taking an active part. We learn what we mean when we say Jesus is the Light of the World, using oranges, sweets on cocktail sticks and candles. Children may get sticky, adults worry that children may set fire to each other and it is a great way to mark the end of the long countdown and feel Christmas has really arrived. During the service the children will help to put all the figures into the crib

St. Mary the Virgin, Rolvenden

The church is open every day from 10am until 4pm. If you are looking for some peace and quiet, an oasis to be still and perhaps to pray, then please pop in.

Safeguarding

Our parish of St Mary the Virgin Rolvenden is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Canterbury’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services.
