It is now, at Advent, that I am given the chance to suspend all expectation...and instead to revel in the mystery.

In St Mary’s prayer cycle for this month, today we pray for people in debt with little money to feed their families and give them a happy Christmas.
***
In these unprecedented times, St Mary’s is reaching out and supporting our community in many ways, especially online. But with activities in our buildings greatly restricted, we no longer receive the previous level of financial support from collections at Services, nor from hiring out the church and hall buildings.
If you can help us financially to continue to offer Christ's love to our community in these difficult times, as those before us have done down the centuries, please consider making a donation by debit/credit card and to Gift Aid it if possible, by clicking this link to 'givealittle':
Thank you!
