The Church Year

Oct 6, 2011

 

 

As well as our usual Sunday services and Christmas, Easter and Harvest services, we have different forms of service at various times in the year.

One of the most popular is the Midsummer Outdoor Service followed by a barbecue. This is always well attended and we have always been lucky with the weather.

The Christingle Service in the week before Christmas is a highlight of our church year and it is usually standing room only as so many people wish to attend. After an incident of singed hair, we now give out electric Christingle candles which are specially imported from Sweden by our previous Rector!

Our regular Celtic Evensong services are lovely and calm, especially when the Harp Group is participating.
