Time is flying and we’ll soon be nearly ready for Christmas !!! All at St Mary’s Church wish you all a very happy Christmastime. Perhaps you would like to join us at one of our services.
Sunday 1st of December at 6.00pm is our Advent service with carols, when the first Advent candle is lit.
Sunday 8th December at 10.00am is our All Age Christingle, where the children play a large part. Also that day at 6.00pm we have our Service of Light when the tree in the churchyard is litup and we remember loved ones who are no longer with us. Each light on the tree is dedicated to someone who has died and whose name is entered in our Dedication Book. 
These lights shine out over the Christmas period. . If you would like to dedicate a light please see Ruth or Sarah our churchwardens.
Tuesday 24th December – Christmas Eve – at 3.00pm there is our Carol Service when all the popular carols are incorporated in the telling of the Christmas story.
Wednesday 25th December at 10.00am  there is our Communion service with carols.
Our normal services are the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month at 10.00am with our S.M.A.R.T  All Age service and then at 6.00pm with a Holy Communion service. Then, on the 2nd and 4th Sunday there is a short Evening Prayer.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS
