Carols by Candlelight at St Mary's
About this Event

Each person is given a candle and at 4.30pm the church falls into darkness, except for hundreds of tiny flames all around. Slowly, the congregation's candles are lit and our classical choir leads us in celebration of the Christmas story through Bible readings and song.

The services finish with festive refreshments.

If you are looking for a family friendly event we recommend our Candlelit Carols on Sunday 20 December at 4pm or 6pm and our Children's and Families Christmas Eve Service on Thursday 24 December at 4pm.
