Christmas 2025 Article Header


This year, our Christmas theme is "Who is Jesus?" In a year of confusion and searching for convictions the biggest question of all is who is that baby born 2000 years ago. He divides history and has had such a huge impact on the British Isles. At Holy Trinity we are looking at the names and titles of Jesus that take us all the way back to the actual events of 2000 years ago and the birth of a boy that would change history like no other.

There is no need to book. Just turn up. We look forward to welcoming you.
