Hello! Thanks for joining us for this week's blog - the final one of 2020! Not quite the usual, but here's what's happening over Christmas at St Leonard's: C H R I S T M A S  Wow, how can it be Christmas next week? Yet, here we are... Although the youth work has wound down for the term, there is plenty going on at St Leonard's church for you to get involved with. Of course, some of these events have already happened but be sure to book on and join in with the Carol Services, the Crib Hunt on Christmas Eve (spoiler: look out for Sarah...), Midnight Christmas Eve Communion and of course, the service on Christmas Day morning.

Hello! Thanks for joining us for this week's blog. Wow, what a week it has been - I hope you've managed to find some peace amongst it all.

Hello! Thanks for joining us for this week's blog. And just like that, we're in December!  As usual, here's your update for the week:  I N   T H E   N E X T   W E E K  We hope you managed to tune in to the St Leonard's service on Sunday. If so, you will have seen plenty of silliness and reflection about waiting from us! Shout out to Harry for being such a great sport!  We had lots of entries into our text competition too but the winner was Naomi 🎉 here she is with her prize... Because what's better than a narwhal toy to celebrate winning? You can see Olly, Jonny and me in the service this week as well,  as we take on the All-Age slot again; this time focusing on endurance ...and it was certainly a test of endurance to get ready for it! The service will start at 10.30am and you can find it on   the church website . Let us know what you think... and watch out for another competition... Next week cell groups will be back to normal! We enjoyed The Invitation event, but
