Christmas is nearly here!
Here is all you’ll need to know about services at St. Saviour’s this festive period.
All are welcome at all of our services! Unless indicated below, we won’t be running separate groups for children, but the services designed with children in mind are the Big Family Christmas Service, 4pm Traditional Carols, the Christingle and the 10:30am Christmas Day service. None of our services are ticketed, so feel free to just turn up! We’re really looking forward to seeing you there.

Traditional Carols | Sun 22nd Dec at 4pm & 7pm
Our Traditional Carol services are not to be missed! Our St. Saviour’s Christmas choir and orchestra, conducted by the wonderful Jonathan Veira, will lead some of our best-loved carols, alongside traditional Bible readings and a short talk. Everyone is welcome to either of the services, though our 4pm service will be more family friendly. We would love for you to invite friends to one of our two services, as we once again prepare to celebrate Christmas together! We will be live streaming one of these services – more info coming soon.
There will be a self-service creche available at this service – listen out for announcements at the service for the location!
Christingle | Tue 24th Dec at 2pm and 4pm
**ADDITIONAL SERVICE ADDED** Good news! We’re anticipating Christmas Eve being quite busy, so we’ve added in an additional Christingle service at 2pm.
Our Christingle services are open to all with a special welcome to families with younger children. They will be informal, interactive and with carols, crafts, and lots of Christmas cheer. This service will last approximately 45 minutes and will not be live streamed.
Midnight Communion | Tue 24th Dec at 11pm
In the middle of the hustle and bustle of Christmas Eve, this reflective and traditional Communion service gives the opportunity to take a deep breath, to be still, and to focus our attention on the story of Jesus’ birth. We sing traditional carols, hear readings and a short talk, and share communion together. Entering the church on the 24th, we walk out into Christmas day! This service will be live streamed.
Christmas Communion | Weds 25th Dec at 8am
A traditional communion service for the earlybirds on Christmas morning. This service will last about 45 minutes and will not be live streamed.
Christmas Celebration | Weds 25th Dec at 10:30am
Come and join our Christmas day extravaganza! Our morning Christmas celebration is designed for all ages to enjoy together, so there will be something for everyone as we celebrate the birth of Jesus together, with carols and a short talk as well as lots of festive fun. We will be live streaming this service.
Sun 29th Dec at 10:30am
