Christingle Service

Every Christmas my son and his school have been part of a Christingle service at a local church. The Christingle service is to remind the children of the birth of the baby Jesus. The children each have an Orange.

*The Orange represents the world.
*The red ribbon represents the blood of Christ.
*The candle for the light,
*The four sticks represent the north, south, east and west and the four seasons.
*The sweets represent the fruits of the earth.

This is the last one as next year he will be going to a new school.
My employers very kindly let me have time off to go as I am working 8am till 8pm today.
The service was lovely. He was called out to say a prayer in front of everyone watching and he was wonderful.
I am so pleased to be seeing the second one since my diagnosis as last year I was so upset as I thougt it was my last Christmas.

I am so proud of him.

Well done little bean, you were fantastic.

I love you x
