Our Diocesan monthly multilingual service this month was a special Christmas carol service and was livestreamed from All Saints' Higher Walton on December 19.
Rev. Sarah Gill led the multilingual service as usual, while Bishop Julian will preach. All Saints Vicar and Curate, Rev Hannah Boyd and Rev Bryn Naylor will also be involved.
You can watch a recording of the livestream 
on the day by clicking on the embedded video above.
Please share with family, church family and your friends on social media if you can on the run-up to Christmas.
- For Bishops' Christmas messages; other video resources and lots more online support and fun ideas visit our Advent and Christmas resources page for 2021.
