Dear Friends,
A warm welcome to the website of St Wilfrid’s Church, Davenham, especially over this Christmas Season. We have lots going on to join in with: our usual 9am All Age Service with a difference – which is a lot less formal and particularly suitable for families and younger people, and our 10am Classic Service, and many other things as well. Please see the link outlining our special Christmas Tree Festival and our Christmas Services (note the morning Service on 22nd, 29th December and 5th January will be just one mixed style service at 10am) We always want to be a warm, welcoming church because we believe in the Living God of love who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit who calls us all to know and enjoy His love. So a really warm welcome to join us for our Christmas specials. We want them to speak of the life changing, love giving, welcoming God who despite the difficulties of life shows us that in Jesus - the Light of the world has come. I wish you every blessing for this Christmas season and for 2025 “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord’ (Luke 2:10b-11) With love, Rob (Rector- St Wilfrids, Davenham) |
