A Blessing for Christmas

We look forward to seeing you at the many services which will be taking place at St Mary’s over the next few days. Everything is ready. Everything is prepared for you. And we wish you and all those you love every blessing as we celebrate the peace and joy of Christmas.

May the joy of the angels,
the eagerness of the shepherds,
the perseverance of the wise men,
the obedience of Joseph and Mary,
and the peace of the Christ child
be yours this Christmas.
And the blessing of God almighty,
the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
be upon you and remain with you always. Amen.

The Revd Dr William Lamb
Vicar
