You are warmly invited to celebrate Christmas at Holy Trinity Church. All the information on our Christmas services and our family-event 'Follow the Star' are below.
​
Follow the Star
Come and experience the Christmas story brought to life! An immersive, interactive experience for the whole family.
When is it? Friday 13th - Saturday 14th December 2024
Where is it? Trinity Church Henley, Church Street, RG9 1SE
How much does it cost? Free
What does it involve? Follow the Star is a 25-minute immersive, interactive experience for families run by Trinity Church Henley. When you arrive you will be met by an angel who needs your help to deliver an important message. The angel will take you and your family around the church and churchyard to meet the different characters from the Christmas story where the children will take part in interactive activities and hear about the first Christmas.
Will there be live animals on the tour? Hopefully yes on Saturday until 3.30pm. However, there is a currently a halt on transporting any animals with hooves due to an outbreak of bluetongue disease in the UK. If the outbreak has died down sufficiently by the time of the event they will be attending.
Is the event wheel-chair friendly? Due to the nature of the old church building there are stairs and narrow doorways. We have tried to make the route as accessible as possible and there is an alternative route that wheelchair users can use - please let us know on your booking form if you require assistance.
