We warmly invite you to join us for a special Christmas Carol Service as we gather together to celebrate the birth of our Saviour, Jesus Christ. Our sermon and communion will be led by Mike Jarvis, who will speak on “Wintering Well” from Titus 3:12-15. This message will encourage us to embrace the gift of rest and quality time with loved ones during the Christmas period, whilst keeping our hearts devoted to God and maintaining our commitment to doing good in His name.
This Sunday promises to be a beautiful morning of worship, reflection, and fellowship as we prepare our hearts for Christmas. Simon Phillips and Shona Tootill from our worship team will lead us in uplifting worship songs, followed by traditional Christmas carols that remind us of the wonder and joy of Christ’s coming into the world.
Throughout the service, we’ll share Christmas-themed readings that bring to life the timeless story of the nativity, helping us to pause amid the busyness of the season and refocus on the true meaning of Christmas.
As we continue our 2025 church focus on the Miracles of the Bible, we’re learning how God works powerfully to inspire and grow our faith, drawing us closer to Him and building us up in mature faith through His incredible love.
