recy treeThis year, the young people of the Church have been challenged to decorate a Christmas tree out of only recycled materials! The decorations were hand made during a special session, and during one of our Sunday School activities.

The tree itself is also recycled! Previous to it being here, it was on display as part of the Christmas Tree Festival, held at St. Johns Chapel, in aid of Chestnut Tree House.

The lights on this tree are low voltage and consume lessenergy than a more conventional set.
