One of the exciting things happening at Christ Church is the increased involvement of young people in the services. During Advent, our candle-lighting prayers at the start have featured a youngster lighting the candle(s). Zach did it on Advent 1, Aine lit two candles last Sunday, and Charlotte handled three, including the pink candle today.
Rev. Paul has started to enlist and train young acolytes. Aine has helped out twice and today she processed, held the Gospel book during the reading, elevated one of the chalices during the invitation, and added a wonderful element of youth participation to the whole service. More young people will be involved during the fourth Sunday of each month and of course, will present the Christmas pageant, next Sunday, Advent 4. If you have or know of a child who might want to participate, please contact the Priest-in-Partnership. |
