Mary and Joseph will once again set out with their donkey on their Advent Journey around Stratton, beginning at St Peter's on Advent Sunday, 27th November at the 11am service. The family will be welcomed into homes as well as Stratton School and other venues. As a host you will provide space in your home, overnight, for these figures, beautifully made by Chris & Ron Rodgers. You may, perhaps, light a candle (safely) and place the figures in a window to welcome the next hosts who will then take them onto a new place to rest for the night.
Following their journey throughout Advent, the Holy Family will be brought, by their final hosts, back to St Peter’s for the Christmas Eve Nativity Service.
If you would like to host the Family, please email or call/message:

Every effort will again be made to make the transfer of the family Covid-safe.
