Hannah and little Oti give us the lowdown on everything happening throughout Christmas 2024!
Christmas at All Nations
Love, Actually
It's Christmastime! We absolutely love to celebrate the birth of Jesus, and this year is no different. Scroll down to check out all of the exciting events that we have lined up for this year - and guess what? You're invited to all of them.
Main Carol Service - Dec. 15th
You won’t want to miss this. With a choir, traditional Carols with powerful worship, readings, and refreshments afterwards (including hot mulled wine)! – all in our beautifully decorated worship space – why not join us? We’d love to see you there.
Starts at 6:00pm, and runs for a little over an hour. Come early to grab your seats! Totally free.
"Just Carols" Service - Dec. 18th
Can’t make our main Carol service on the 15th? Come along to our daytime “Just Carols” service! It’ll be a smaller, traditional service, and there’ll even be a simple lunch afterwards.
Starts at 10:30am. Totally free. If you plan on staying for the lunch, please let Ginny Green know if possible by hitting the button below.
The Living Nativity - Dec. 21st
Come and see live animals from the Nativity! Aimed at young families, enjoy Christmassy crafts, a Nativity re-enactment, festive refreshments, and more. There will be two bookable sessions; 3pm-4pm, and 4pm-5pm.
Booking required; tickets are £2.50 per person. To book your tickets, contact Janie Gadsden by hitting the button below.
Christmas Day Service
What better way to start the day than getting together to celebrate the birth of Jesus? Honestly, we can’t think of one. Kept shorter than a normal service, this’ll be a lovely time of fun, reflection, worship and fellowship.
Starts at 10:00am, but we’d recommend arriving a little early to grab a seat! Totally free.
New Year's Eve
Once again, we’re seeing the New Year in with style – and with worship! We’re going to get together so that we can give thanks for 2024, put all that 2025 has to bring in God’s hands, and then just have some good old fun.
As time creeps closer to midnight we’ll head outside for sparklers, fireworks, hot sausage rolls and hot drinks. It’s going to be a blast. Bring the family!
Starts at 11:00pm. Totally free.
What About Sundays?
Our normal Sunday services will still be running throughout December - but with one change. There will be no morning (10:30am) service on December 15th.
Aside from that, we're meeting as usual - and as ever, everyone's welcome.
Christmas Giving
We love to bless other organisations at Christmas, and this year’s no different! Learn more below about where our Christmas Offering will be going.
If you'd like to give, just use a giving kiosk in the building, give at the giving boxes near the front, or just click the link below and choose the "Christmas Offering" fund. Thank you so much!
Food Production in Malawi
In partnership with the churches we work with in Malawi, our aim is to develop the land purchased last year, fencing it off so it can be protected and cultivated for food production.
We also hope to purchase emergency food provision for the most needy at this time.
Power for Heat & Light in Ukraine
Through the churches we have relationships with, our aim is to provide generators so that they can serve and support those most affected by the bombings and power outages in Eastern Ukraine
Azalea
A local charity that works with those caught up in sex-trafficking and the sex industry. Azalea seeks to bring support and freedom to both women and men whose lives have been traumatised and impacted by these life-changing issues. Again we have a direct relationship with those who help run this amazing work, and you can find out more here: https://www.azalea.org.uk/
