All Together Communion for Advent
3rd December 2017 9:30 am - 10:30 am All Saints Parish Church Wokingham
All Together Communion services are special Communion services when worshippers of all ages from 0 – 90+ are in the church together throughout.
This Sunday – Advent Sunday – the service will have a special activity focus, aimed at making a difference to those who will be suffering homelessness in our community this winter.
The first part of the service will be hands-on, with activities at different levels for children and adults; for those who wish to get involved there will be craft-based activity; or, if you prefer, there will be an opportunity to write our own prayers and messages , or to join a discussion group.
As usual the service will culminate in the sacrament of Holy Communion. All are welcomed to the altar table, whether to receive Communion or a prayer of blessing .
