Christmas

Christmas at St Thomas Methodist Church.

A warm welcome awaits you at any of our special services in the run-up to Christmas.

Learn about and celebrate the true meaning of Christmas.

There are several services in the lead up to Christmas and dates will be announced when they are known.

Christingle

A Christingle service for all ages where we explore the meaning of Christmas whilst making a Christingle. The orange represents the world and the lit candle represents Christ - the light of the world. A red ribbon is placed around the orange to represent the blood of Christ and then four sticks of fruit and sweets are placed on the orange to represent the four seasons and the fruits of the earth.
