Christmas Tree Festival
Christmas Tree Festival 2021
This year we had 12 entries for the Festival which ran over the weekend of 27th -28th November. Although the weather was not good courtesy of Storm Arwen, we had a steady stream of visitors and over 40 people attended worship on Sunday afternoon where we had a live band playing.
The Tree that received the most votes from the visitors to the Festival was the ‘Lockdown Angels’ Tree provided by a member of Sowerby Methodist Church.
Over £200 was raised from donations during the Festival which will be used for the church’s Eco projects ( see page on website). The offering taken before the worship service will be given to the Circuit mission project: Methodist Asylum Project, Middlesborough.

- Memory Tree
