Christingle and Nativity Services
The Christingle Service will be on Sunday 13 December at 4:15pm, and will be live-streamed. Those attending will receive a Christingle-making kit, instead of a ready-made Christingle, and these will be available in advance to those who are unsuccessful in applying for a ticket.
The Nativity Service will take place on Christmas Eve at 3:00pm. Children who wish to dress up in costume will need to provide their own costume and arrive in it. The format will be different to avoid contact between people of different families/bubbles. The service will be live-streamed, but children will not be shown on camera, except for those whose parents have agreed in advance for them to take part in the service.
People will be able to attend either the Christingle or the Nativity service (not both) by ballot
