Christmas 2018 - What's On?

For many of us, Christmas brings up so many emotions, memories and expectations. We have one nativity story, but it can seem like we all have very different Christmases.

Just like the unexpected assortment of people who were invited to meet the baby Jesus...
come just as you are to take the life-changing Christmas journey

Archbishops Justin Welby​ & John Sentamu

What's On, Where and When?

There's lots happening across the four churches of the Grays Thurrock Team Ministry.  It's our privilege to host many of the local schools and colleges, and other organisations, for their Christmas services and celebrations, as well as opening our doors to everyone to come and join in with our own services, lead by different groups within the churches.
