Christmas plans

Contrary to what you may have heard, Christmas is most definitely not cancelled this year.

At the moment, we do not know whether physical services will be permitted. If they are, services will be at the same times as over the last few months (9:30 for St Katharine's, Knockholt and 10:30 for St Margaret's, Halstead), unless indicated otherwise below. (Please sign up in the usual way.)

See below, follow us on Facebook, and make sure that you have signed up for email updates to get the latest news.

Doorstep Carols - Sunday 20th December

On Sunday, 20 December, we have a wonderful opportunity to join with people across the nation – and the world – in singing carols on our doorsteps.

At 5:30pm, tune your radio to Premier Radio or Freeview 725 or download the Premier Radio App, come out to your doorstep and sing along to the carols.

Wear your festive jumpers and get properly into the spirit.

A great thing to do along with neighbours (like with the 'clap for the NHS' earlier in the year).
