Christmas

card-front

Advent and Christmas are special times at St Columba’s.

This year we will have the following services and activities –

 

Sunday, 5th December 2021

11am – Morning Worship.

This will be our Gift Day service. We are collecting toys to be distributed by the Salvation Army. If you are ordering online, you can ask for parcels to be shipped direct to the Salvation Army Hall, Caskieberran Rd, Glenrothes KY6 2NR.

 

Sunday, 12th December 2021

11am – Morning Worship.

We will also be holding our annual reflective service at 6pm.

This is especially suitable for people with feelings of loss or bereavement.

This will be a short service with music and opportunities to reflect, specifically for people who have been bereaved and people who find Christmas hard because they feel the absence of loved ones. It is a time away from the jolly Christmas music and singing. There will be few words and no sermon.

Everyone is welcome to this service, so if you know anyone who might like the opportunity to spend some time in quiet reflection please invite them. Enter through the main church door by the Bell Tower.

 

Sunday, 19th December 2021

11am – Morning Worship.

We will be having an All-age service on the Nativity theme. It would be lovely to have children and families either in the church or joining by Zoom. However, because we must ask people to stay in the pews in the church, it is still not easy for toddlers.

If you are joining on our All-age Nativity on Zoom this Sunday, it would be wonderful if you could dress up as one of the Nativity characters or bring something – a sheep, some gold, a sign for an Inn – or anything that would fit in with the Nativity story. There will be an opportunity to show/share these during the service.

Friday 24th December 2021 – Christmas Eve Watchnight Service.
 
There will be no church service this year on Christmas Eve. Our Watchnight Service is going virtual and will be available on Zoom and YouTube at 11:30pm. All are welcome to join in fellowship with us online with worship, prayer music and carols.

                                                             

 

Christmas Day – Saturday 25th December 2021

On Christmas Day, there will be a short service in the church at 10:30am. Families are welcome, but we will need to avoid the usual greetings and hugs. As you are probably aware, we are still not permitted to sing in church. Feel free to wear your Christmas jumper if you have one! Unfortunately this year we will be unable to participate in the Christmas Day Lunch.

 

 

Sunday 26th December 2021 –  11am Service

On Sunday 27th, we usually have Carols and Communion. This year, there will be no singing of carols and no communion. However, we will have a service in church, on Zoom and on YouTube. Please join us for Christmas Bible readings, music and a chance to share in fellowship.
