Into the New Year
New Year's Eve - Watchnight Service
The Watchnight Service
provides the opportunity for Christians to review the year that has passed and make
confession, and then prepare for the year ahead by praying and resolving. The services often include singing, praying, exhorting, preaching, and Holy Communion.

We wish everyone a peaceful and hopeful New Year.
Epiphany
The Twelve Days of Christmas is a festival starting on 25th December and ending on 5th January. In Western Christianity, 6th January is observed as Epiphany and principally commemorates the visit of the Magi (the wise men) to the Christ Child in Bethlehem.

This is a very important service in Methodism at the beginning of the New Year where we recommit ourselves to God's service.
The Covenant is the means of grace by which the relationship between God and his people is accepted and sustained by us. God has already offered us a loving relationship and we seek to live within this relationship sustaining it with his help.
The Covenant Service is uniquely Methodist but is now adopted by other denominations.
