Family Carol Service

Sunday 21 December at 3pm

“O Come all ye Faithful”

Something a bit different this year as we celebrate the Christmas Season! Above all Christmas is a time for families and friends so we have made changes to our traditional service of Nine Lessons and Carols with this in mind. We have changed the time from 5pm to 3pm in order to allow time for refreshments after the service and the chance to mingle convivially!!

The service itself will remain one of Lessons and Carols which tell the Christmas story but has been redesigned to be inclusive of all ages and Carol preferences and will last about an hour. All your favourite Carols will be supported by the Organ and members of the Shona Choir but above all it is hoped that the congregation will enjoy the opportunity to sing and celebrate this joyful event.

Everyone is welcome – Christchurch family or occasional attenders or not at all at Services – and are encouraged to wear suitably colourful “Christmassy” outfits.

In the words of our penultimate Carol in the Service,

“Joy to the World, the Lord is Come”
