Getting ready for Christmas
Come and join us at any or all of these Christmas events. We’d love to see you there.
Settling into our ‘new normal’
While continuing to be conscious of the ongoing risks from COVID-19, we have found some patterns of gathering that have become a ‘new normal’ for us…
9am Quiet communion service @ The Old Rectory (80 Hodge Hill Common, B36 8AG). A small group (generally 3-10 people), meeting in the living room of our Old Rectory Community House. The communion service comes from the Church of England ‘Common Worship’ red book, with no singing.
10.30am All-together communion service @ Hodge Hill Church (242 Coleshill Road, B36 8BG). This is a larger group (c. 30 people), currently (through the colder season) meeting in the ‘large classroom’ at the church building. This creative, seasonal service includes a fair bit of singing, and some opportunities to get up and interact with other people and/or ritual activities (e.g. lighting candles, washing hands, etc). After the service there is an invitation to stay for a hot drink and some cake/biscuits, and some people gather together to discuss their thoughts, feelings and reflections from the service.
