Diocesan news Posted: 7 December 2021

Wales' Christingle Service takes place this weekend and will help to support Faith in Families' work.

The online service will be led by the Bishop of St Davids, Joanna Penberthy, and takes place at 10am on Saturday, December 11.

Faith in Families CEO Cherrie Bija said: "Christmas is a time to bring everyone together. This year once more we are having to do our celebrating differently – but it doesn’t mean we can not enjoy the traditions we love – by being virtual indeed it means we can all join in at the same time and make this a real great Welsh Christingle – it's exciting and I can’t wait to be with you all this Saturday."
