Mid-week Joy 9th December

 Mid-week Joy

Welcome to our mid-week celebration of the great things happening in Leesfield Parish and beyond. 

Worship for all Generations is back at St Agnes' Church this evening, but if you missed it you can watch on our facebook page from 6.30 pm tomorrow.

This Sunday is our Toy service, 10 am at St Thomas' Church, and we're pleased to be welcoming Bishop Mark to join us. If you can't be with us in person you'll find everything you need to worship from home here on this page at weekend.

The third Sunday in Advent is also known as "Gaudete Sunday", which gives me an excellent opportunity to share this link to an old Steeleye Span favourite!  



Last week our Sunday schools joined in a "Zoom" Christingle service, with the help of the Children's Society.. Here are just a few of the photos, and they're looking forward to lots more Christmas excitement soon.



The Church of England has launched a special campaign for Advent and Christmas. Please watch this short video to find out more about "Comfort and Joy" 


If you would like to receive regular updates about Comfort & Joy you can find a link to sign up by clicking here - https://www.churchofengland.org/

Our own service of Nine lessons & carols will be at 6.30 pm on Sunday the 20th December, but sadly we won't be able to sing this year. Watch these pages though, because we'll be sharing links to on-line services and Youtube carols so you can sing along at home.

And finally, as we write our Christmas cards we'll probably see lots of images of the Madonna and Child, who often are portrayed as looking "just like us".  Here is a collection of beautiful pictures from around the world - a timely reminder that Jesus came for all of us - no matter what we look like.
