Come along to our Family Advent Workshop for some festive fun on Saturday, Nov 30th, 3.00pm – 6.00pm at St Wilfrid’s Hall.  This is an opportunity to prepare for Advent and Christmas together through fun and festive crafts and activities. Following this there will be a short Advent reflection followed by a shared meal. Children under 11 must be accompanied by an adult. Places must be booked as numbers are limited. To book your place, please purchase a ticket from the back of church at the cost of £1 per person which will also enter you into a raffle. Tickets will be available from November 10th onwards. Feel free to dress up in your festive jumpers and outfits too!
