Nativity Service photos….

We would normally put these on the Church website so excuse me for putting them here on my blog (but I was having problems with doing it and our web administrator is ill and we did say to people that we would make them available to see!)

The Nativity Factor

ITV have been running a great competition called Nativity Factor with people entering short videos of their re-telling of the Nativity.

Narnia and other “Christian” Films
