Candlemas Evensong

Sunday 3rd Feb 6.30pm, Stonham Aspal Church


Candlemas Evensong with the United Benefice choir

Join us as we celebrate the Festival of THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE.
 
Candlemas takes place 40 days after Christmas, and is among the most ancient feasts of the Church.

It is based upon the account of the presentation of Jesus, in Luke 2: 22-40.

In some Churches it is during this service that Candles for the year are blessed, a symbol of Jesus Christ, the light of the world.

Everyone is very welcome.
