What a great weekend at St Mary’s to kick-off the Christmas season. We had the New Forest Orchestra perform and also the Christingle Service with the band playing, kids enjoying the sweets and oranges (and a few of the adults too!), which was followed by a social get-together for tea and biscuits. Were you there? If yes, thanks for coming, and if not, don’t worry as we still have plenty of great events coming up! Such as:
9th Dec – a craft workshop for making table runners
18th Dec – the St Mary’s Carol Service (with the debut of the St Mary’s choir!)
20th Dec – Christmas Coffee morning
Christmas Eve – the Interactive Nativity Service and Midnight Communion
Come and join us – we’d love to see you!

James,
Enjoy your e-mail postings. In your role as a member of the band ensemble and in an effective PR role you must be kept busy with St.Mary’s well-being.
Thanks James – kind of you to say. There is always something going on at St Mary’s to be kept busy with – but it’s certainly worth it! Look forward to seeing you over the Christmas period.
