The practice of attaching a wreath of evergreens to the outside of the front
door is an indication of welcome during the festive season. The Christmas
theme for 2017 at Aldersgate was ‘Christmas Wreaths’ and the church was
decorated with over 50 Christmas wreaths.
The wreaths had been made by church members, groups within the church, organisations who hire the premises, the local Hill Top Primary School, Messy Church and the Brigade. Whilst some wreaths were made with evergreens, others showed wonderful creativity, with dog biscuits, paper craft, brussels sprouts, baubles, Christmas crackers, feather boa and knitting. The originality was amazing, and the decorated walls were a wonderful sight, saying: “Welcome - let’s celebrate Christmas”.
We already have the theme for 2018. You will learn more nearer the time and please come along during Advent 2018 to see the display.
