Christingle


We've worked with groups over the last few days includingt he First Sunday Thing today to link the parts of the Christingle with things with which our local churches are concerned... and these are two of the illustrations which we produced.  The orange for the world - a globe with Zimbabwe marked on it here we have a link parish we support.  The ribbon for Christ's blood - the Christmas Cards being sent through Action of Christians Against Torture.  The candle for Christ the light - the candle shaped collecting boxes for the Children's Society whose idea Christingle was.  The fruit for the harvest of the seasons - the tins collected at Harvest and through the year for Grimsby's Community larder and Doorstep charity for young homeless.
