There’s something special about Christmas when we celebrate together. From reflective moments and family traditions to festive fun, carols, and opportunities to give back, we’ve got a wonderful season ahead at Kerith Community Church Bracknell and you can keep up to date with what’s going on at our dedicated Christmas at Bracknell webpage.
Whatever age or stage you are at we have something for everyone- and if you haven’t been to Kerith before you are especially welcome to come and join us- we think the birth of Christ is a brilliant reason to celebrate so here at Kerith Bracknell we do it with style!
Advent Reflective Meeting 🕯️
Sunday 29th Nov | 3:00pm | Kerith Centre
As the Christmas season begins with Advent, come and join us for a reflective service of music, readings, communion and prayer. We will spend time considering the meaning of Advent as we prepare for Christmas, praying for ourselves, our church and the world. This is especially helpful for all those who have had a tough year and would love space to reflect quietly.
