The Presentation of Christ in the Temple
This Sunday we gather to celebrate Candlemas — a beautiful moment in the Church year when we remember Mary and Joseph bringing the infant Jesus to the Temple, and Simeon recognising Him as “a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Israel.”
Candlemas marks the turning point between Christmas and Lent — a season of light, promise, and quiet hope.
Join us for a reflective and uplifting service as we give thanks for Christ, the Light of the World, and pray for His light to shine in our lives and our community.
📍 St Mary’s Church, Bideford
⏰ 9:30 am
All are very welcome — whether you join us every week or are visiting for the first time.
There will be tea afterwards, with a chance to meet new friends and reconnect.
🕯️ Christ our light. Thanks be to God. 🕯️
