Millennium Kneelers

In the late 1990s members of Christ Church congregation designed and produced a number of hassocks (kneelers) to celebrate the millennium of Christ's Incarnation. On Sunday 30th January 2000 - our Patronal Festival - the kneelers were dedicated by the Bishop of Southwark the Very Reverend Tom Butler. The kneelers can be found in the pews in the nave. Photographs of all the kneelers and brief details about who sponsored which kneeler and for whom they were produced can be found here.

All are for the greater glory of God in Christ.

The second gallery has thumbnails of all of the kneelers and brief details about each one. Having viewed the slide show, go to the particular group in this second gallery to find the kneeler you wish to see. Click on a thumbnail to see the full design, then use your browser's “back button” to return to this page. Alternatively right-click a thumbnail and select "open link in new window". (If you "open in new window", your browser should resize the picture to fit you screen.) Be warned, some photos will take time to download through a dial-up connection. There are 63 kneelers in total (the numbering is the same as the slide show gallery above). These photographs are organised into groups of 10 (13 for the last!) so as to limit the size of page to be downloaded. - click on a link below to go to a gallery.
