This years Festival is a community celebration bringing people and local organisations together by each decorating a Christmas Tree. The trees are then displayed collectively, for a limited time and open to the public. Our thanks go to Kevin Greenwood, Martin Baker, Mandy Waters and those who have spent time and effort putting their trees in the wonderful interior of the church.
Please notice too on the outside of the church, two trees have been decorated as ‘Living Trees’ with seeds and nuts to feed the local bird population.
Fun Question:
Why do you leave your Christmas Tree up until the 6th January???
January 6th is known as the Epiphany, Little Christmas or Three Kings Day. From the perspective of religion tradition, its the day that the Magi (the Three Kings or the Wise Men) brought gifts to the infant Jesus, so it makes sense for many to mark this as the last day for the Christmas Season.
