Blue Service
Sunday 15th December at 5pm

Come join us as we gather: during the season of Advent when the beauty of Christmas is around us, we are also reminded of those close to us who have passed and no longer with us during this time of celebration. 

Our annual Blue Christmas service is a time to remember and name those lost  as we look forward with hope and peace. 

Tea, coffee and cake were served

after the service.​
