The Salvation Army Brings Festive Cheer to Mold
published on 12 Nov 2026
The Salvation Army in Mold is inviting local residents to get into the festive spirit with a programme of seasonal activities designed to bring people together and celebrate the true meaning of Christmas.
The Salvation Army will be part of Mold's annual Christmas Lights Switch-On taking place on Tuesday 24 November. The event will feature live music, school choirs, food stalls, funfair rides and festive entertainment, with a ‘special visitor’ switching on the town's Christmas lights at 6.30pm. Join the Salvation Army at Mold Christmas Lights Switch-On for 'Make & Take' Christmas crafts or pop into the shop on 27 Wrexham street, Mold, to find out more about:
-
festive craft sessions making Christmas wreaths, decorations and cards
-
carol singing where everyone is welcome
-
Advent celebrations at Sunday worship focusing on the story of Jesus' birth.
The Salvation Army gazebo will be at the heart of the Christmas Lights Switch-On celebration in Daniel Owen Square, Mold. During a community carol event at the Coffee Shop on Wrexham Street on Friday 18 December visitors can choose and sing their favourite Christmas carols accompanied by traditional sound of The Salvation Army Band.
Major Michelle Hayter of The Salvation Army in Mold said:
“We love everything about Christmas including the sense of community it brings. But at the heart of Christmas is a message of hope, joy, peace and love. We see the difference that love makes when friends and families come together to share gifts, meals and precious moments.
“Through our crafts, carols and community events, we're looking forward to sharing that message and welcoming people of all ages through our doors this festive season.”
As part of its festive programme, The Salvation Army Coffee Shop will host Christmas Craft Tuesdays from 10am to 12.30pm until 15 December. People can enjoy a different seasonal craft each week, including decorations, wreaths, cards and gift tags. Using recycled materials, the sessions combine creativity with sustainability. Materials are provided for a suggested £3 donation, and everyone is welcome. Sunday worship services at 10.30am will focus on the Christmas story and its message of faith, kindness and new beginnings.
