Eldersfield Nativity Trail

What a fantastic event this was! We had shepherds with their sheep…..

And Angels singing live!

Wise men and a very wise woman as you can see above, and then, waiting for us in the Church were the Holy Family;

Angela and Joseph kept us sustained with hot dogs, and Bill’s mulled wine was a tonic for body and soul! Above all, friends and neighbours were able to walk together and talk together safely, and the amazing sum of £575 was raised for Crisis at Christmas. Huge thanks to Andy and the team for all the hard work which went into organizing it, and to all the folk who participate and came along and supported in spite of the at times inclement weather. Well done everyone!

Compline, 18th December

As the world slows down ready to celebrate the Saviour’s birth, join us for the gentle, meditative and ancient service of Compline this Friday – a chance to step out of Christmas preparation madness and be in touch with the eternal for a moment. Doug will lead us in worship, starting at 7pm on Phone Church via Zoom with some catch up chat, and then from 7.15pm we will say the words of the liturgy together. Your service sheet can be viewed or downloaded here, and we look forward to welcoming you.

Morning Prayer, 16th December

Countdown to Christmas – the days are whizzing by – but we’re still in Advent, practising our waiting by coming along to Morning Prayer at 11am on Phone Church. We meet, we worship, we chat – basically we check in on each other to share our joys and our challenges in these strange times. Find out how John and Pam got on with their Covid vaccination, or what wildlife has been spotted locally in the past week – all human, bird and animal life is here! The service sheet can be viewed or downloaded here, and we look forward to welcoming you.
