Everybody at St James' Church Christleton would like to say thankyou to all those who turned up to our Christmas Eve Carols around the Tree which was as popular as ever! There was mulled wine and mince pies afterwards! During the evening we collected for the Christian Aid Middle East Fund and the total raised was £608.55p.

Gazans are sheltering in tents, under extremely dangerous building shells and some are even sleeping in the freezing cold open-air. Please follow the link below to get a clearer understanding about Christian Aid and their work under such heart-breaking circumstances.
