Advent marks the beginning of the church year. It is a time for reflection in darkness, for renewal of hope and for preparing to celebrate the birth of Christ. Purple is the traditional colour of the season, symbolising repentance and fasting, but also royalty. #JoinTheSong

Such a blessing to hear the story of Christ's birth in scripture readings and carols at our Lessons & Carols Service yesterday. Thank you to Dan Pugh-Bevan and all the musicians from the RNCM for singing and accompanying us. And to Maria and her team for the buffet afterwards.

The First Sunday of Lent After Jesus is baptised the Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. Wherever your place of wilderness, Jesus has gone before and you will know that he is with you when you see his bow in the sky.

Bishop Mark also blessed and rededicated our restored altar frontal of St Michael the Archangel. We are so grateful and very blessed to have it restored. The amazing restoration work was carried out by the embroiders at Royal School of Needlework
