New Church of England Christmas film

A new Christmas film, made by the national church has been released. It follows the life of someone attending church, from a young girl through to her elderly years, and depicts how she is supported by her local church through many Christmases.

It ends with a simple message: “Wherever you are on life’s journey, you’re invited to church this Christmas.”

The advert is part of the Church of England’s Christmas campaign: “Follow the Star – the Great Invitation” and is geared towards people who might not normally – or ever – attend church. 

It includes a plain-English explainer on what to expect at church this Christmas with answers to common questions that people may be too embarrassed to ask such as “How will I know what to do?”, “What should I wear?” and “What if I do not know all the words?”.

The advert also highlights how, alongside the joy and celebration, Christmas can be a very painful time for many people, especially those experiencing bereavement.

You can see the video below. More information on the campaign can be seen on the Church of England Website
