Happy New Year!
As we step into this new year together, we pray that God's light goes before us, filling our hearts with hope, our homes with peace, and our lives with renewed faith and love. May this year be one where we are guided ever more closely by Christ's presence among us.
This Sunday we celebrate Epiphany, continuing our journey as we follow the star. We will watch the Magi arrive at the crib and reflect on how encountering Christ calls us to "Be Changed." As we worship together, may we too be transformed by the light that leads us onward.
And don't forget to bring your crown! 👑

Christingle Service
Join us for a joyful and colourful Christingle Service, an All Age Communion at 10:00am in St Mary's where everyone is welcome. Together we will celebrate Jesus as the Light of the World, shining in our lives and in our community.
With glowing candles, bright oranges, sweets, and ribbons, Christingle reminds us that God's love is for the whole world and that Christ's light brings hope, love, and joy to all people.
Come as a family, come with friends, come ready to worship, wonder, and share Communion together as one church family. Expect warmth, light, and a sense of joy as we gather around Christ's table.
We look forward to welcoming you for this special service full of light, life, and hope. ✨🍊🕯️
