During the pandemic you can visit our website for a Thought for the week and for Sunday worship every week.
On 6pm on 24th December Christmas Eve there will be a Christmas Jingle all over Britain, with children, families and churches ringing out their bells for hope and joy (and of course to help Santa on his way) so grab your bells and join in.
The church bells will ring from 6.00pm for the service starting at 6.30pm in the building and there will also be the live stream of the service at that time – why not start Christmas as a family celebrating with Christians world wide remembering the reason for the season! You will be able to find a link on the Newbattle Parish Website.
