On Sunday the 2nd of December, the Bishop of Edmonton confirmed six adults and five children from the congregation. It was a lovely service. We pray for them and wish them well as they embrace this important step of their continued Christian journey.

St Mark’s (6 – 8 year olds), St Luke’s ( 8 – 11 year olds) and St John’s ( 12 years & up) Junior Church Groups all have a charity which they support. Once a year they have a fundraising event for their charity.

St Mark’s Junior Church Group provided the eats at coffee after the Confirmation Service on Sunday the 2nd of December. They asked for a donation to raise money for their chosen charity, Wednesday’s Child. With sincere thanks to all of you who provided and donated so generously, they were able to raise £101-73. This is a great achievement on everyone’s behalf. Well done!

Wow! Didn’t the children do really well with the making of angels, stars and snowflakes which were used to decorate the church railings for Christmas?! They were wonderful and helped to make our church look so beautiful and lovely for Christmas.
