New for 2026
If you are looking to host a Christingle Service in a Messy Church way, then check out the
December session in Get Messy! vol. 4.
Endorsed by the Children’s Society, the activities in this session explore the different symbols of the Christingle, helping us to see that God loves everyone, and Jesus’ light is for all the world, bringing hope for all. As participants move around the activities, they will collect parts of the Christingle to assemble in the celebration.
It provides the perfect opportunity to find out more about The Children’s Society and raise some funds for their work.
Use this Christingle session throughout Advent and Epiphany to welcome new people into God’s big story this Christmas.
Get Messy! Vol. 4 2026 Christingle session
Messy Christingle 2020
Everyone loves looking at the light of a candle. There’s something peaceful and reassuring about the way the flame burns steadily, giving off its light to displace the darkness. It’s not surprising, therefore, that the Christingle is such a treasured part of our Advent, Christmas and Epiphany celebrations each year. However, this one-off lighting of a candle can be so much more. How can it become a flame of happiness and hope that is passed on to others every single day? This 2020 BRF Messy Church Christingle in partnership with The Children’s Society offers a resource that focuses on helping us do just that.
