What better way to start advent than by stepping into St Peter’s Church, Uplowman to see the twinkling lights and beautifully decorated trees at our Christmas Tree Festival. With around 30 trees on display, the church is filled with festive cheer.
Each tree is uniquely designed by local groups, school children, individuals and families, showcasing the imagination and talent of our community. Whether you like a traditional tree, or prefer a quirky one, there’s something on display for everyone.
So why not come along and cast your vote for your favourite trees (adult, child, group categories), whilst enjoying festive refreshments in our beautiful church setting. Interested in designing a tree? Please do get in touch as we would love to showcase your creativity. Contact stephaniepackham92@hotmail.com

Harvest Festivals
It has been very enjoyable to have so many Harvest Festivals with our local Primary Schools. Webbers School in Holcombe Rogus received food donations for CHAT (Churches Housing Action Team) and had a beautiful service at All Saints Church, the children of each school year did a little performance on their reflections on Harvest by means of songs, poems and a play.
Sampford Peverell and Uplowman schools have also donated many food items to CHAT aswell.
Aqua Bears is a toddler group which takes place in a swimming pool allowing water confidence, play, singing, a bible story and allowing families to connect. If you would like to know more about this group, please contact Steph Packham
