This year during Advent we are reflecting on the themes of “Calm and Bright” which feature as lyrics of the famous hymn “Silent Night”.

Why not take a break from the chaos of the Christmas season by visiting one of our many events throughout December and January. Whether you are looking for a calm moment of reflection or something to brighten your day we have a wide range of things taking place. Our celebration of Advent kicks off with our annual Christmas Tree Festival weekend, which will also play host to a Rushden Town Band Concert and Advent Carol service.
Other events throughout the season include Christmas Coffee Morning, Chirstingle and much more!

The Christmas period gives you an opportunity to reset, relax and prepare for the coming year as we in the church begin a new liturgical year, commencing on the first Sunday of Advent (1st Dec).

As well as celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, we at St Marys treat Advent as a period of reflection, praying for those no longer with us and the joy they brought to our lives. At midnight mass we will line the path to the porch with candles, each candle sponsored in memory of an absent friend or loved one.

Our doors are open to you this Christmas. We look forward to sharing this celebration with you.

In addition to the above events and seasonal services we hold a sung Eucharist service every Sunday at 9:30am and a spoken service of Holy Communion every Tuesday at 11am.

A warm and friendly welcome awaits you at St Marys this Christmas.
We look forward to celebrating together.
