Reminder : Christingle – Sunday 15th December

Please join us for our Christingle Service on Sunday 15th December at 4pm.

Children will build a Christingle (made from an orange, red ribbon, 4 sticks with sweets and fruit and a candle) and we use it to explain the Christmas message.

We’re also raising money for the Children’s Society to help disadvantaged children.

This is just one of many Christmas events happening at St Catherine’s Tilehurst.
