Wilstone and Long Marston Living Advent Calendars!
We need your help.
As with so much this year, Christmas is going to be different. But it is still a celebration of light and love. For those of us with a faith, it is about the birth of Jesus our Saviour, and all that means to us.
To remind us that even in difficult times, whatever we believe, we have much for which we rejoice, we would like to organize Living Advent Calendars in Wilstone and Long Marston. Some of you may have seen this on local pages.
Advent begins on Sunday November 29th this year, and Christmas Eve is the last day. So for each of those 26 days, one household would put a display in a window or a front garden that others can see, and that is left up for the whole of Advent.
It would be up to you how you decorate, and you need a space that others can see, that will not cause a traffic or pedestrian jam. You also need to be comfortable with your address being on the list/map that will be issued (within the villages only).
Emma Smith is organising Wilstone, and Rev Jane Banister is organising Long Marston, and our contact details are below. Do get in touch with us to volunteer or for more information.
If we get lots of volunteers, we could have two on each day and include the 12 days of Christmas as well!
