Sunday Services in December

8th December	11.00am & 6.30 pm	Blue Christmas Once again we take a pause in the Christmas preparations to acknowledge the difficulty the season can present for those lonely, in pain and experiencing loss. We each hope for peace and strength to bear those parts of Christmas that are hardest for us and call to mind those we miss most acutely at this time of year.	Rev Andy Phillips
15th December	6 pm ONLY	Brass and Carols Our annual Christmas carol service with the accompaniment of the fabulous Stannington Brass Band. The most atmospheric service of the year - not to be missed!	Rev Andy Phillips
22nd December	11.00am ONLY	The Anatomy of a Snowflake What does winter look like? At the turning point of the year we look for renewal in the fragility of the earth, our lives and our society.	Rev Andy Phillips
25th December (Weds)	11.00am ONLY	Christmas Day Service Peace and love and joy in the birth of a newborn child. Merry Christmas indeed!	Rev Andy Phillips
29th December	11.00am ONLY	Stop the World I Want to Get Off As 2019 draws to a close we pause, briefly, to consider the bewildering and relentless pace of change of modern life and how to deal with it.	Rev Andy Phillips

5th January	11.00am & 6.30pm	Starting again, again A new year is potentially a chance to start at least part of our lives again. How real is this chance and are we able to seize it?	Rev Andy Phillips

19th January	11.00am & 6.30pm	An Unexamined Tradition... ...is not worth continuing? Socrates said that "an unexamined life is not worth living" and American Unitarian said that "an unexamined faith is not worth having". We look at the role of tradition in our lives, our faith and our institutions.	Rev Andy Phillips
