Since the beginning of December we have been hearing of how the angel, Gabriel visited Mary and gave her the good news that she was to have a baby, who would be the Son of God and called Jesus. He was also to be called Emmanuel, which means 'God with us', because Jesus is God in human form.
Joseph and Mary have been travelling to Bethlehem to register for the census, which must have been very uncomfortable for Mary, especially when they discovered that there was nowhere for them to stay. The time is now coming closer for when they arrive and the baby is born, which we celebrate on Christmas Eve.
Meanwhile, the shepherds are in for a big surprise, and the Wise Men have already started their journey following the bright star in the sky.
Today at
2.00pm, our Christmas tree will be decorated by all the children at St Mary's at our Advent Fun Afternoon and they will also be making crafts and enjoying party games and food. We hope you will join us. It's not just for children!
If you have missed doing some Carol Singing so far, why not go along to
Derbyshire House on Station Road and bring a little cheer to the residents tonight at 6.30pm.
