Eucharist of Christmas Day: 11 a.m. on Christmas Morning
Public Worship has been suspended from 26th December. This means Sunday’s Eucharist will be ‘online’ only.
Eucharist for the Sunday after Christmas (The Holy Family):
11 a.m. on Sunday 27th livestreamed to our Facebook page.
We have taken careful precautions to ensure that worship at St. John’s is as safe as possible in the current public health crisis. This means numbers are limited due to social distancing requirements.
These services will also be livestreamed on our Facebook page and the recordings posted to this page.
GOD, whiche makest us glad with the yerely remembraunce of the birth of thy onely sonne Jesus Christ; graunt that as we joyfully receiue him for our redemer, so we may with sure confidence beholde hym, when he shall come to be our judge, who liveth and reigneth &c.
Collect at the First Communion on Christmas day 1549 BCP
Almighty God
you have given us your only-begotten Son
to take our nature upon him
and as at this time to be born of a pure virgin:
Grant that we, who have been born again
and made your children by adoption and grace,
may daily be renewed by your Holy Spirit;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
