Lansallos held its annual Christingle Service on Sunday afternoon. 44 people attended the service which included 13 children. The Trelawny Rev, Richard Allen explained to the children the true meaning of Christmas from the Nativity Scene and explained that Gods greatest present to us at Christmas is Jesus. Everyone appreciated there Christingle which represent 4 important aspects of the Christian life. The orange reminds us of the beautiful world that God has made. The candle reminds us of the light of Christ and that all Gods teachings help us to walk in that light. The red band is a reminder of Easter and the blood of Jesus shed for our forgiveness on the cross and then of course the sweets remind us of the fruit of the Holy Spirit which is love joy peace patience kindness gentleness faithfulness and self control which God can empower us with.
