We welcomed fourteen guests from the East Leake community to our first Turkey and Tinsel event today and great fun was had by all.
There were games with prizes, a most delicious Christmas dinner and dessert at the Three Horseshoes Pub, followed by entertainment and singing before 'Santa Claus' with an elf came to hand out gifts to all the guests.
Everyone went home after having refreshments including home-made mince pies. We'd like to thank everyone for making it such an enjoyable day, especially to Canon Philip Humphries who expertly played the piano and sang for us. Watch out for more photos.
Advent begins this Sunday, 28th November.
This marks the beginning of the church looking forward to the coming of Jesus as a baby, the Messiah. He came to show us how to live so that we might have a close, loving relationship with God who loves us all. It also reminds us that we are looking forward to Jesus coming again.
