Celebrate Christmas 2020 with Teddington Parish

There is no doubt Christmas will be different this year but we welcome you to get in the Christmas spirit and celebrate with us!

Book Your Christmas Service

To keep everyone socially distanced in church over Christmas, we have introduced ticketed services. Tickets will be issued individually, with no differentiation between adults or children, and are free. Please book as many tickets as you need seats, but do not book tickets for anyone outside of your household, as each set of tickets sold will be treated as a 'bubble'.

Both St Mary with St Alban and St Peter & St Paul's capacities are currently 50-70, depending on the combination of tickets booked, so initially we will release 50 tickets for each service, at each church, but more may follow.

We ask that you only book for one service so that as many people as possible have a chance of coming to church over the festive period.

If you cannot secure a booking to attend in church, services marked with * in the list on the right of this page will be livestreamed via our YouTube channel.

Buy home-made decorations and gifts

Plain & Pearl have been busy over the last few months and the fruits of their labour, including decorations, gifts as well as cakes, jams and chutneys, are now available to buy at their online shop.

Orders are for collection only and we thank The Good Wine Shop in Teddington for providing the collection point.

 

 

Get Comfort and Joy from the CofE

Comfort and Joy is the Church of England’s 2020 Christmas campaign. Christmas will feel different this year, and
we very much hope that despite the ongoing restrictions, it will be a time to care for one another and a time to come together.

Comfort and Joy is a series of reflections that will help us reconnect with the rich and joyous traditions of the past and to know God’s consoling love in the present. Taking inspiration from the traditional nine lessons and carols service, it will explore both biblical texts and the words of much-loved Christmas carols.

You can take part by signing up here.

Christmas Lunch deliveries available

Unfortunately, Churches Together in Teddington's annual Christmas Lunch for elderly people (or those who are alone at Christmas) cannot take place this year but Christmas Day can be brought to your door! If you would like Christmas Lunch delivered, please email hello@stjohnshamptonwick.org or call Penny on 07757 733315.
