Minister: Rev Dermot Thornberry

Dear Friends,

CHURCHES TOGETHER IN SEVENOAKS AND DISTRICT
ADVENT CAROL SERVICE – Sunday, 1st December 2019
at The Drive Methodist Church at 6.30pm

It has been a tradition of the North West Fellowship of Churches to begin Advent with a joint service. This year the invitation is extended to all CTSD churches.

We realise that some churches will be making their own arrangements but others  may welcome this opportunity to join us.

An ecumenical choir has been a special feature of our Advent Services and we hope that even more singers will come along this year.

Please invite singers from your choir and congregation to join the united choir.
