Family Christmas Film
Come and join us for a fabulous morning of family entertainment.
Our in-Church cinema is open again on Tuesday 23rd December at 11am for us to watch a film together. We are screening The Star – a great animated story of the nativity as told through the eyes of the animals. Sweets and drinks will be provided. Just come along and enjoy the fun.
There’s no charge, but donations towards the costs of the events are welcome by cash or contactless payment.
Christingle Service
At 4pm on Christmas Eve, Christ Church will be full of Christmas Gladness as we gather for our annual Christingle Service. Christingle is a joyful celebration that brings families and communities together to share the light of Jesus and spread a message of hope. During the service, each person takes a Christingle and the candles are all lit to create a warm, magical glow symbolising the light of Christ and bringing hope to people living in darkness. This very popular service sees us gather together across the generations and rejoice in the good news of Jesus. We hope you can join us too.
An offering will be received during the service which we will give to The Children’s Society and we would encourage you to be as generous as you can to support the work of this charity.
Candlelit Carol Service
Come and join us for a beautiful service of Readings and Carols by candlelight in the wonderful setting of St Peter’s Church. The service begins at 6pm with a solo voice singing the first verse of Once In Royal David’s City. We continue with traditional Bible Readings and some very familiar Christmas Carols. After this service you are sure to feel a little bit more ‘christmassy’.
Carols On The Green
Saturday morning and there was no rain in sight. We had such a joyous occasion singing carols on The Green in Mountsorrel led by Revd Colin Resch and accompanied by the Leicestershire Cooperative Brass Band. Organised by The Churches Together in Mountsorrel, the event saw a good number of the community come together for the singing of carols. We were joined by the Deputy Mayor of Charnwood, Councillor Colin Hamilton and the Deputy Mayoress; the MP for Loughborough, Mr Jeevun Sandher; the MP for Mid-Leicestershire, Mr Peter Bedford; and the Chair of the Mountsorrel Parish Council, Councillor Megan Pirt.
After the singing of carols, tea, coffee and sweet treats were offered at the Mountsorrel Baptist Church.
