Worship - Christmas 2011

We look forward to seeing all members of St Mary's family in church over the Christmas period.

Christmas services in St Mary's, Eaton Bray (unless stated otherwise) include:

Sunday, 11 December 2011

Village Carol Service - 4.00pm

Carol Service at All Saints Dagnall

Carol Service - 6.00pm

Carol Service at St Mary's Eaton Bray


Christmas Eve - Saturday, 24 December 2011

Candle Services - 4.15pm and 6.00pm

The Candle Service on Christmas Eve is St Mary's best attended service.

Congregations have grown to such an extent that two identical services are held, one starting at 4.15pm, the other at 6pm. Last year roughly 600 people, of all ages, joined one of these acts of worship to celebrate the birth of the Christ child.

This year's service will have a similar format to that used in previous years and will have, as a focus, characters from our Travelling Crib.

Midnight Mass - 11.30pm

Midnight Mass, Blessing of the Crib and First Communion of Christmas.
