Dear Friends,
Due to the current COVID situation, we have made the decision that we will not hold Christingle Services in Church this year. Instead, Rev’d Karen will be delivering a United Benefice Christingle Service via zoom at 4:00pm on Christmas Eve, so we can all still be together, but also keep all our families safe for Christmas.
We will still provide a Christingle kit for every child, in exchange for the candle collection boxes. Please come to St Mary’s Church, Mellor, to collect your kits, between 2:00pm and 3:00 pm on Thursday, 23rd December. If anyone does not currently have a candle collection box and would like one, please simply reply to this email to let us know.
Here is a link to the Children’s Society website, where anyone who wishes to do so can make a donation electronically. https://www.childrenssociety.org.uk/how-you-can-help/donate
Please find the log in details for the zoom Christingle Service below. Please log in after 3:30pm on Friday, 24th December for a 4:00pm start. Please also find the service sheet attached. Thank you.
