Christingle Service

for 1 hour
St Andrew's, Epworth
Church Street Epworth Doncaster, DN9 1ES, United Kingdom
A Christingle service is a joyful and family-friendly celebration that helps all ages explore the light of Christ in a simple and memorable way. Using the Christingle—an orange decorated with a candle, ribbon, and sweets—we reflect on Jesus as the light who shines in every darkness. Through carols, storytelling, and prayer, children and adults alike can share in a moment of hope and generosity.

It’s a gentle, welcoming service, ideal for families and those new to church, and a lovely way to support the wider work of The Children’s Society as we remember God’s love for every child.

St Andrew's, Epworth

Welcome to St Andrew’s Church, Epworth

Welcome to St Andrew's Church. We aim to be a welcoming, friendly and inclusive parish church serving the people of the North Lincolnshire market town of Epworth and also the many pilgrims and visitors who come from all over the world because of our part in nurturing the Methodist revival of the eighteenth century. Our chief aims are to love God and one another through our worship together and through active service as Christian disciples within our community and the world, to 'know Jesus and make him known'.

Details of our services and other activities can be found on this site and we look forward to welcoming you whether you come from round the corner or across the world to know of God's love and to share that with others.
