CHRISTINGLE SERVICE
Sunday 1st December 2019 3.00 p.m. – A Christingle Service
Christingle is a beautiful celebratory event that takes place in thousands of churches and schools across the country, raising funds that help The Children’s Society to continue it’s work supporting young people. As well as being a fun-filled activity to teach children the Gospel, Christingle creates cherished memories for the whole community too. Adults and young people alike enjoy the spectacle of the lit candles in the darkness and the opportunity to engage more deeply with their faith and is a powerful reminder of the message of hope and peace.
CHRISTMAS CAROL SERVICE
Sunday 18th December 2016 at 3:00pm – Christmas Carol Service
Our annual Christmas Carol Service is very popular with both regular church goers and once a year attendees attending. It’s an opportunity to come along and have a sing along to all of the old favourite Christmas Carols accompanied by traditional church organ music in a church dressed up for the occasion. Afterwards there is always the opportunity to stay behind for a drink and piece of cake and a catch up with people you don’t always see, guaranteed to lift the spirits.

21st March 2017 – St Nicholas Church, Ulceby, received the good news that it is set to benefit from an £8,000 National Churches Trust Repair Grant to help fund urgent roof repairs which will help remove this Grade I listed church from the Historic England ‘Heritage at Risk’ register.
Thank You!
Thank You to Ashton and Isabel from the bottom of our hearts.
A big thank you to these two lovely pupils from St Nicholas Primary School who very kindly participated in a “Lifestyle” project to raise funds towards the church “Loo” appeal.
“Lifestyle” for the uninitiated is a Humberside Police sponsored project which was established in 1989 to challenge young people to get involved with their communities and make a difference during the summer holidays.
Well, Ashton and Isabel certainly did make a difference to us. They worked really hard together to make popcorn, create games of chance and collect things to sell at a local charity event, and the result was a very attractive stall.
They came to present their hard earned £45 to the Reverend David Martineau and the congregation at the service on 15th October 17 and received a round of applause with our gratitude.
It’s brilliant that those so young care enough about this beautiful ancient building to raise funds for us.
