So what's all this stuff about Advent? Advent means 'coming' in Latin. We call the four Sundays before Christmas Day 'ADVENT' because we look forward to celebrating the coming of Jesus Christ about 2,020 years ago. This year, Advent begins on the last day of November. Here's what we'll do to celebrate:
-
10:30 am Sunday 7th December. Café Church. An informal service of praise, led by Deborah Spinks
-
10:30 am Sunday 14th December. Our Toy & Gift service, where people bring in gifts for children who might otherwise not receive one. Uniformed organisations (Scouting and Guiding) will parade. Led by Rev Heather Simmons.
