Named after Christingles themselves, the oranges wrapped in red tape, decorated with dried fruit or sweets, with a candle on the top that are lit during the ceremony, this is a joyful celebration that brings families and
communities together.
There is no one way to hold a Christingle celebration. They are usually held from the end of November through to February (Advent to Candlemas), with Christmas Eve being a particularly popular time for services, but you can host one whenever you like to share the light of Jesus and spread a message of hope.
Whether you're planning a virtual Christingle or a Christingle service in person visit the Children's Society website for a host of ideas and resources.
