We know it's early to be talking about Christmas, but we want to invite you to start thinking about our Christmas Tree Festival.This year it will be from 12th - 14th <a></a>December with our annual carol service on Sunday 14th.Last year we had more than 20 beautifully decorated trees in church and from the Festival until the New Year they made St John's look wonderful.Can we get more trees this year?Anyone who would like to put a tree in is most welcome to do so, please drop a message to Sheila Orgill 07484 825203 so we can prepare space for your tree.You can have lights on the tree but they do need to be battery powered please.
