Praying the O Antiphons - in the week preceding Christmas we will have some quiet reflections at 7pm, inspired by the O Antiphons (prophetic titles of Christ), in St German’s and St Saviour’s.  It is meant to be a spiritual preparation for Christmas and the anti-dote to the noise and glitz of the ‘shopping season’.              

Advent and Christmas - Please see poster at the back outlining some of our other services for Advent and Christmas.  Copies are available online and at the back.
