During the Advent season the youth groups across town are playing their part becoming involved in the celebrations in each parish. As part of the this preparation for Advent, The 3 Parishes Youth Action Group joined forces with Youthi3 to hold an Advent Christingle Service. Not everyone in the church was sure what a Christingle Service was (have a look
here if you’re not sure) but they soon got into the spirit of it. Afterwards, we gathered in the parish centre for mince pies, mulled wine and some festive music. Many thanks to Fr. McCann for being such a generous host!
Heavenly Father,
You give us light and life.
As we mark the season of Advent,
Let us look forward to the light that is to come into the world
Through your Son, Jesus Christ,
Amen
Christingle, Christingle, shine out in the night,
to kindle among us this marvellous light.
The power of love is always the same:
Be glad, give thanks, rejoice in God's name.
