Christmas Eve Celebration

Christmas_Eve_Celebration

Our annual Christmas Eve celebration features a great lineup of classic Christmas carols to bring people together and celebrate the true meaning of the season.

It is run by the St Albans Baptist Church and features a creative performance of the Christmas story, followed by a cuppa afterwards. Anyone in the community is welcome to attend this free event.

The Christmas Eve Celebration is held at St Albans Baptist Church, 64 McFaddens Road, Christchurch.

Light Party

For a number of years Halloween has been gaining momentum in New Zealand.
 
We at the Neighbourhood Trust and St Albans Baptist Church, want to see families enjoying themselves and spending quality time together, but instead by celebrating life, wellbeing and diversity, rather than Halloween traditions. So we put on an alternative event each year on the 31st October – the Light Party!
