Christingle Service

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
St Paul's Monk Bretton
Address
St. Paul the Apostle Burton Road Monk Bretton Barnsley, S71 2HQ, United Kingdom

A Christingle is a symbolic object used in the Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany services of many Protestant denominations. It symbolises the birth of Christ, the Light of the World. A modern Christingle is made from a candle in an orange (representing the light and the world respectively) which is typically decorated with a red ribbon and sweets or dried fruit. It originated in Moravian Church in the middle of the 18th century and has been a feature in Moravian churches across the United Kingdom since before the World Wars. As members of Moravian churches moved away from their home congregations, they took the custom of Christingles with them and introduced it to other denominations. In the 1960s John Pensom adopted it as a fundraising tool for the Children's Society of the Church of England.

Blue Christmas

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
St Paul's Monk Bretton
Address
St. Paul the Apostle Burton Road Monk Bretton Barnsley, S71 2HQ, United Kingdom

As the festive season approaches, churches across the UK are preparing for joyful celebrations. But for many, Christmas is not a time of cheer: it can be a season marked by grief, loneliness, or mental health struggles. That’s why Blue Christmas services and reflections can be helpful - to acknowledge those feelings and offer support to those who might be struggling.

The Church of England’s theme this year is Joy, but reflecting on joy doesn’t mean ignoring more difficult emotions and experiences. Part of reflecting on the Joy of Christmas is embracing the reality of the sadness and pain that we experience as we wait for that joy.

Village Nativity Play

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
St Paul's Monk Bretton
Address
St. Paul the Apostle Burton Road Monk Bretton Barnsley, S71 2HQ, United Kingdom

An event for ALL the family.
The children of Monk Bretton (and sometimes their parents) are going to act out the Christmas story, there's no rehearsal or lines to learn just a lot of fun as we start Christmas in our own traditional way. All of the children are invited to take part, there are costumes available but if they have already got something suitable that's absolutely fine. It's the rule that everyone must join in the singing! The church is always full for this event and for many people this marks the beginning of Christmas for them.
Look out for the big sheep!

First Mass of Christmas (Midnight Mass)

Occurring
for 1 hour, 30 mins
Venue
St Paul's Monk Bretton
Address
St. Paul the Apostle Burton Road Monk Bretton Barnsley, S71 2HQ, United Kingdom

Because the birth of Our Lord happened at night it is traditional to have a Mass at or near midnight, this is one of the most important services within the Christian Church. It also for some churches marks the point at which the Christmas season actually begins. Because many of our congregation don't want to be out late at night our Mass is held at 8:30pm and follows the traditional pattern of readings and carols with Holy Communion. Everybody is welcome to attend, whether you are a confirmed member of the Church of England or not.
