This morning at 10 am we had our first Family Communion of 2020. The Feast of the Epiphany is actually on the 6th of January, but we celebrated it today. So the theme of the service was the visit of the Magi. Father Stephen, who is now recovered from the flu/bug that has been going round was the celebrant for this service.
The Sunday School took part in several elements of this service. The Three Kings presented their gifts of Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh at the crib, and during this time The Choir and congregation sang the carol 'We Three Kings' with solos from 2 of our Basses, also suitably attired!!
The presentation, also by a member of the Sunday School gave us the history and symbolism of Frankincense. The prayers, including prayers for the people and wildlife of Australia, were read by other members of the Sunday School.
Before the Communion, Father Stephen blessed our beautiful new wall hanging of the Nativity which has been stitched by Mrs Anwyl Allisstone and present to the Church.
During Communion the Choir sang The Nativity Carol by John Rutter as the anthem.
After The Service there was coffee in the Rooms.
Our next event will be the Hungarian Supper on the 15th of February, tickets are available from the Church Wardens £15 per person.
