WHAT IS your favourite Christmas symbol? A star? A tree? An angel? A gift?

My favourite Christmas symbol is a tent.

In the first chapter of the gospel of John we read that God took on human flesh and came to live on earth.

Another translation puts it this way: “God pitched a tent and came to live amongst us”.

Faith, for me, is about being in a relationship with a living God who wants to share our lives.

The Christian faith for me is about mystery and relationship.

This Christmas I invite you to explore your faith and share hope and love with your community.
