Christmas is coming . . .




       We have a worship preparation meeting on 19th November to plan
       our Christmas Eve service and look at the beginning of next
       year.  Anyone wishing to join us we'll be at the church, 4 pm on
       19th November.

       We are also putting together our very own Favourite Christmas
       readings, poems, prayers and Carols for 15th December,
       preferably readings based around 'Love'.   There will be a box in
       church to pop in suggestions or you can email our new worship
       prep email address SwanageURCworshipgroup@gmail.com
       With your suggestions.   If it it something to read, we'd love you to
       do that yourself but we could also do this for you.

       We will try to accommodate all but in the case of too many
       suggestions we will pull the items out of a hat!  Please don't let this
       stop you.  We'll certainly consider any additional carols for the rest
       of our Christmas services.

       Many thanks
                                                          Davina and Emily

       This year we will be putting all of our services and candlelight
       evenings and events for Christmas into a leaflet and attaching
       them to biscuits again.

       If you are able to bake biscuits or deliver biscuits with leaflets
       through letterboxes near our church, please speak to or
       message

          A poet once wrote ‘Where is the wisdom we have lost in
                     knowledge? / Where is the knowledge
                          we have lost in information?’
            These words, which sound strikingly relevant to our
        situation today, were actually written in 1934 by T S Eliot.
