If I say the word “Christmas”, what is the first image that immediately occurs to you?
Some possibilities are: –
Christmas tree
Decorations on the tree
Other decorations
The figure of Santa Claus / Father Christmas Christmas crackers
Advent
Advent candles
Advent calendars
Nativity scenes
John *Martin’s Christmas Pageant in Adelaide The service of Nine Lessons and Carols from King’s College, Cambridge
Gifts
Christmas stockings
Christmas cards
Carol services
Carols by Candlelight
Other traditions, perhaps within your own family.
I want today to look at just some of these, in no particular order.
The Rev Geoff Usher’s delightful sermon for the end-of-year Christmas party can be read here.
