If you want to prepare your baby for stardom, a leading role is available in the Heptonstall Methodists’ traditional nativity service.

A baby is needed to play the part of Baby Jesus on Sunday 23 December at 10.45am. Willing candidates can be held by Mary or can chill out in their car seat next to the manger, depending on the parents’ preference.

Any other children who would like to join in as angels, shepherds etc are very welcome to attend.

Rehearsals are being held at 10am on Saturday 15 December and Saturday 22 December at the Octagonal Chapel. Anyone interested can contact Margaret on 01422 842550 or just turn up to a rehearsal.
