FAMILIES are being invited to a popular Nativity service.

Christ Church is holding its annual service in the Old Station House at Greenbank railway station on December 10.

Youngsters are encouraged to come dressed in their own Nativity costumes, with an option to borrow one from the church if required.

The service will take place at 10.30am and will be repeated at 4pm. No booking is required.

This year, the church is also inviting families to a ‘Pantivity’, combining the story of Christmas with all the fun and humour of a panto.

This event takes place at St John’s Church in Hartford on December 16 at 1.30pm. It will again be repeated at 4pm.

Entry is free, but tickets are required and can be obtained online at christchurchgreenbank.org/index.php/events.
