St Sampson’s Church Christmas Tree Festival 2019 – members of the Court decorate their Christmas Tree. In 2017 the theme was Christmas Carols. However, the theme this year is “Peace on Earth“.
The Cricklade Court Leet tree, number 6, is one of 30 being decorated by various businesses and organisations from Cricklade.
All the Christmas Tree Festival 2019 trees are on display in St Sampson’s Church over the weekend Saturday 30th November to Sunday 1st December.
Cricklade is fortunate to be a peaceful place to live. Free from oppression, fear and violence, unlike so many places around the World. Our hope and prayers are for everlasting Peace throughout those many areas of conflict on our planet. Resolution is only through talking to each other using those words of PEACE.
The Court was well represented at this year’s Remembrance Sunday parade, which took place in a cold, but dry and sunny, Cricklade. Continue reading “Remembrance Sunday 2019”
