A festive celebration
Christingle services bring together family and friends of all ages. Held from Advent to Epiphany, this festive celebration communicates the Christian message in an inspiring way to adults and children alike. Its wide appeal makes it an ideal way to encourage newcomers to church, particularly children and extend your congregation.
God's Good Gifts
Every year for the last four years, our resources have taken on the theme of one of the four components of the Christingle; The four cocktail sticks with sweets and fruit to illustrate God's good gifts and the four seasons, the red ribbon symbolising the Blood of Christ, the orange, representing the world and the candle, representing Jesus the Light of the World. This year we focus on the theme of the sticks and fruit, representing God's good gifts.

Making a difference to the lives of disadvantaged children
Through your Christingle you will be raising vital funds to support our work with children whose childhoods have been stolen; children forced to run away from home or care who may find themselves sleeping on the streets this winter; young refugees fleeing conflict and war; those caught in a cycle of crime and detention; or children marginalised through disability.
Any money raised through Christingle will help make childhood better for thousands of children in the UK.
