Gomersal, Yorkshire - Feb 2025

We started our Christmas festivities with a very successful Christmas Fayre. This was held on the last Saturday in November, with mince pies as well as biscuits to accompany the tea and coffee.

At the beginning of December our Ladies Fellowship held their annual Christmas lunch at a local restaurant. The meal was delicious, and a very good time was had by all. The same evening a carol service with the Spen Valley Divisional Guides took place in Church.

Some of our ladies knitted Christmas Angels and along with others from Churches Together in the Spen and District area distributed them to shoppers in Cleckheaton.

A Carols, Crafts and Christingle family event was held on Saturday 14th December and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The following day our Nine Lessons and Carols service took place. The lessons expertly read, and it was such a pleasure to sing all the familiar carols again.

The Christingle Service was well attended and went really well. On Christmas Eve we held our Holy Communion Service.

Happy New Year to all our Brothers and Sisters everywhere.
