Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

All on-site services have been suspended until further notice. Please join us on Zoom!

Christmas Eve Services

4pm – Service of the Word on Zoom
This shorter service is designed to be particularly suitable for children but it still has all the trimmings – carols, story, prayer, and fellowship!

7pm – Service of the Word on Zoom
Bring your own candles and celebrate the birth of Jesus from home. See if you can sing the carols loudly enough to include your neighbours in the party!

Christmas Day Service

9am – Christmas Morning Prayers on Zoom
Come in your pjs and bring your coffee!

Bulletins for these services can be found here.

Blue Christmas- recording

All on-site services have been suspended until further notice.

If you are in need of prayer (over the phone or video call), please feel free to contact Rhonda to arrange an appointment.

You may want to pray the Blue Christmas service with this recording.
