This Sunday 7th December, please come along and join us at St Martin's in Herne in remembering loved ones, or even just to enjoy the carols and refreshments. We'd love to see you there.

Christmas can be a very difficult time for those who are missing someone they love, especially when they are facing Christmas without them.

Christmas is also a time of celebration, which is not easy for those who have been bereaved, even when the loss occurred some time ago.

Once again, in order to remember and honour those whom we loved who have died we will be holding our annual Memorial Carol Service at St Martin's in Herne on Sunday 7th December, at 3:00pm.

You will be able to hang your own stars on the Christmas tree in memory of your loved ones and to celebrate their lives.

This is a free service and is open to anyone who wishes to attend.

There will be refreshments served in the church after the service.
