CAROLS SIngING EVENT WITH TRAMSHED THEATRE COMPANY
On Monday 12 December at Wesley’s, members of TramShed Theatre Company will sing three carols and join us in singing other carols from 6p.m. – 7p.m. Free drinks and mince pies. Guests are very welcome!
TramShed is a fully inclusive theatre company based in Blackpool, Wyre and Fylde. They offer performing arts workshops to children, young people and adults from all walks of life. They approached us and asked if some of their young members could learn three of our carols/Christmas songs and then for us all to come together for an hour to sing and sign together to celebrate Christmas. What a lovely idea - we obviously said 'yes'! Everyone is welcome to join in the celebration and we absolutely love different generations coming together to be creative and spread some happiness! We thought it would be great to introduce the members of TramShed to Wesley's and local people.
BENEVOLENT FUND
Collections for the Benevolent Fund are to be reintroduced at the end of Holy Communion services. This is perhaps a good way to put your loose change to use, once your collection box has been handed in.
