In the last week of Rev Ludger Fremmer’s time as priest at St Wilfrid’s, Congregationalist Anne Flower organised for Salvo Brass to play a Christmas concert. Isn’t brass band music and Christmas just the perfect match?

As I retire from my role as parish priest, my family and I want to thank the people of the Kibworth Benefice for 18 years of shared life, faith and friendship.

“On that first Christmas morning, the angels were singing, the shepherds were celebrating, the wise men were still travelling and the innkeeper was making breakfast for his full house.  Meanwhile, Joseph was possibly feeling a little overwhelmed by the responsibility confronting him, and the Bible says Mary was ‘pondering’, ‘treasuring all these things in her heart’ (Luke 2:19) as she held and fed her new-born baby.

National Safeguarding Week - National Safeguarding Sunday was held on Sunday 16 November

As ‘SLADE’ would shout in their well-known record “It’s CHRIST……MAS”.

Come and celebrate with us! St Andrew’s has traditional services and events with all the trimmings. The church will be fully lit and decorated for the Christmas Tree Festival from Friday 12 December until Sunday 14 December.

Ludger’s final service at St Wilfrid’s Church took place on Advent Sunday, 30 November, when a full church had the opportunity to say farewell to him and Ruth. A shared lunch followed in the Church Hall, attended by about 100 people. 

Join us for an evening of Christmas music with Salvo Brass on Friday 28 November at 7.30pm. Tickets are £15 to include tea or coffee and homemade cake. All proceeds will go to St Wilfrid's Church. Tickets can be purchased from The Well, or by contacting Tel:07540719298.

It’s all change this month in School Road, Kibworth. At one end we have the relocated Library in the Community Hub and at the other, the newly re-fitted Methodist Church. Come and try out our new chairs at one of our services.
