Nine Lessons and Carols

for 1 hour
St James the Great, Cranham
Cranham Cranham Gloucester, GL4 8HS, United Kingdom

You are warmly invited to our traditional Service of Nine Lessons and Carols — a celebration of the Christmas story. Through a sequence of Scripture readings and carols, we journey from the first promise of the Messiah to the joy of Christ’s birth. This service offers a moment of peace and wonder amidst the season’s busyness, as we gather to rejoice in the coming of our Saviour.

St James the Great, Cranham

Our church building sits on the hill by Cranham Common, overlooking Cranham Woods and the most westerly valley of the Cotswolds. Up the road is our Church of England Primary School, and the pub and village hall are 400 meters down the road. The Church is open during the day and a Churchyard plan is available on request for visitors and researchers. The Church plays a central role in the life of the village.
