ADVENT SUNDAY

Dear Friends,

It's Advent Sunday and as in years past, we are gathering at St Swithun's for Advent Carols by Candlelight by way of starting the season of Advent. I'm delighted that +David will be visiting us and will preach in the service that Revd Jemima Lewis will lead.

Please come and support this special service entering into the mystery and beauty of the season of Advent.  We have a special choir for the day and after the service you'll be able to chat to +David over mulled wine, sherry and mince pies.

There is a limit on numbers so we do require you to book to come for this service.  We are giving priority to St Swithun's congregation so please do book in by Thursday morning.  Depending on numbers, we will then start taking bookings from the wider community.

Parking is opposite the lychgate and there will be marshalls to guide you across the road.  Please bring a torch, wrap up warm and wear sensible footing.  

It will be a very lovely occasion and I do hope you'll take the opportunity of gathering together in worship at the first Advent Carols we have held since 2019. 

Revd Paul


We would like you to continue to book in for the time being, as it will help us manage the service if we have a rough idea of who is likely to attend. Your help by doing this would be appreciated. However, we will not turn anyone away who comes to worship – everyone will be welcomed and included!

Let us know if you will be coming using the following ways -
