Advent Events

Picture
The season of Advent is a season of preparation, as we draw close to welcoming the Christ Child.
Advent incorporates the four Sundays preceding Christmas. The themes of Advent are Hope, Joy, Peace and Love.


Here are the events in the parish. Please feel welcome to join us.

Advent 1: Dressing the Christmas Tree
On Sunday 27 November at 9.30am we begin the season of Advent by dressing the Christmas Tree. We explore the meanings behind the traditional Christmas decorations. This service will be at All Souls, Clevedon.

On Sunday 27 November at 7.30pm we will have the last of our Sanctuary - St James concert series in All Souls Clevedon.
