Harvest Celebrations - A Celebration of all our Gifts

This year we are celebrating all that God has given us, in crops, material possessions and talents - and giving back to God in gratitude.

We begin on Saturday 9th October at 7.30pm with the world premiere of the Film 'A year in the life of Christ Church'  filmed by Ray Green during the year 2009.  A chance to celebrate all that goes on in the church and all the many talents that help it come together. There will be refreshments in the interval.

On Sunday we give thanks at an all-age Harvest Celebration service of Holy Communion, followed by a shared lunch. Finally, the choir lead us in a choral Book of Common Prayer Evensong at 6.30pm.

New look 2nd Sundays!

The 2nd Sunday of each month is an all-age service of Holy Communion. Each month the service will reflect a particular theme and the words and music will be chosen to provide something for all, from the oldest to the youngest.  We are always delighted to welcome our uniformed organisations, who join us for these services.

Next All-age service on 12th September - 'What's in your backpack' - children are invited to bring their schoolbags to church!
