Christmas is a time of hope, of light in the darkness; even in the grip of a global pandemic. God is bigger, more powerful than any virus, and this Christmas we can and will still celebrate His coming, to bring us hope and light in the darkness. Do join us.
For all the services at BH all COVID19 regulations are followed. Which means we are having to limit spaces. Therefore for all the Christmas services you will need to book a place to come. Please don’t turn up if you have not booked a place.
Booking for all the services will open on 1 December. When the booking opens there will be a set number of places available for each service but as people book more places will be made available. More tickets are released daily so keep trying if the service at first appears full.
