A CHRISTMAS Tree Festival will be held at St Matthew’s Church, Stretton on two weekends – November 28-29 and December 5-6.
Remembrance and Prayer Trees will be in the church for visitors to remember loved ones and request, or write, prayers.
But there will also be sponsored trees representing local businesses and organisations.
The church has invested in new, low-voltage LED lighting which promises to be spectacular.
There will be children’s displays and the church will offer people a chance to take time out from the busy run-up to Christmas and enjoy a hot drink and mince pie.
On Saturday November 28 there will be a concert and carols, featuring children from St Matthew’s School choir at 2pm and the following Saturday there will be a carol service, also at 2pm.
On the two Saturdays, the church will be open between 10am and 4pm while on the two Sundays the church will be open between 2pm and 4pm in addition to normal services at 8am, 10.30am and 6.30pm.
There are no entry charges to the Christmas Tree Festival but donations can be made and profits will be divided equally between the church and its nominated charity.
