Day 4 

Use Your Work Calendar  

 

Christmas Ideas for Christian Workplace Groups 

 

If you haven’t done so already, ask HR / D&I managers if your organisation will allow religious festivals to be highlighted on your work calendar with pop up boxes explaining what the festivals are about. 

his is a great opportunity for all staff to learn about other faiths from their colleagues.  Ask if you as the Chair / Leader of the Christian Group could write the information about Christmas and Easter. 

Make sure there is a clear way colleagues can contact your group and attend.  For example put your name and email on the link and meeting times and address in the pop up information boxes so staff can connect and receive  support from your group.
  

Day 3

What are you looking forward to this Christmas?

Sefton Council's Christian Workplace Group asked a number of colleagues this question and here's their response.  The Group also teemed up with a local Christmas charity who then invited all staff to join them to watch a nativity drama on the beach.

 

Day 2

What does Christmas mean to you? 

 

Christmas Ideas for Christian Workplace Groups  

 

Why not seek permission from your communications team at work to record a video of staff sharing what Christmas means to them.  Encourage a mix from your group and all staff especially those from other cultures to encourage diversity and be inclusive.  It's a great way to learn about other cultures .  Endeavour to ask senior managers to join in if possible.   If you are organising an online Christmas event, let people know their videos will be shown at the event to encourage them to log on and join your Staff Christmas event. 

Open door 3 tomorrow to see one local authorities Christmas video put together by the Christian workplace group and the communication team!

Day 1

Advent 

Each day you can open our advent calendar to find an idea of how your group can share Jesus this Christmas season within your workplace.  It might be a testimony, a thought, a how to guide or piece of scripture.  If you have a good news story you'd like to share over the next 24 days please do get in touch.  office@transformworkuk.org 

Be encouraged at the start of this Christmas season by reading the following prophetic words from Isaiah, that God will send his son, Jesus, to save us.  Thank you Father for your salvation plan, thankyou Jesus for coming from heaven to earth to save us from our sins so we can live life in freedom knowing and walking with God. Amen. Isaiah 9:

The people walking in darkness
    have seen a great light;
on those living in the land of deep darkness
    a light has dawned...
For to us a child is born,
    to us a son is given,
    and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
    Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Of the greatness of his government and peace
    there will be no end.
He will reign on David’s throne
    and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
    with justice and righteousness
    from that time on and forever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
    will accomplish this.
