Christmas Eve Service at St Mary\u2019s Church Wenvoe <\/strong><\/p>\n This will be my fifth Christmas as Priest in Charge at the Parish of Wenvoe. During this time we have always celebrated the First Communion of Christmas (commonly known as Midnight Mass<\/strong>) with a service starting at 11.30pm <\/strong>on Christmas Eve. This will definitely continue to be the case this year in 2018<\/strong>. However, several people have mentioned to me that this service is too late for them to attend. I thought it would be interesting therefore to conduct a Straw Poll to see if people would prefer this service to be at 9.30pm in future years. A copy of the voting form is shown. If you usually attend this service, or if you would like to attend this service in the future, then you may wish to pick up a voting paper from St Mary\u2019s Church, Wenvoe during the services on 23rd, 24th and 25th December and to return them by 30th December to the boxes provided in Church. We will then look at the results to see what would be the best timing of this service in future years.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With thanks and blessings for Christmas<\/p>\n Jon – Priest in Charge<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MIDNIGHT MASS Christmas Eve Service at St Mary\u2019s Church Wenvoe This will be my fifth Christmas as Priest in Charge at the Parish of Wenvoe.
