Note that everyone needs to sign in for test and trace and wear a mask in church unless exempted.

Because we cannot have our annual Carol Services this year we are going to hold a Covid-19 secure Open Church – Journey to Bethlehem – event for families this year. You are invited to an interactive ‘tour’ of the church, ‘travel with the wise men’ as the Christmas story is told at several activity stations around the church.

Come and see Mary and Joseph on their way from Nazareth to Bethlehem and meet some of the people travelling on the same route.A ‘goody’ bag containing various craft resources for use during and after the event is provided as part of the ‘tour’.

These will take place on

  • Sunday 20th December from 1:00pm to 3:30pm
  • Tuesday 22nd December from 10:00am to 12:00noon
