Carol Service: Sunday 10 December 2023 at St Andrew's, Wickhampton
There was a medieval theme running through our service this year, with certain carols dating back to the Middle Ages, and a brief history of how Christmas would have been celebrated by rich and poor alike; it seems there was much feasting, drinking, merrymaking and mischief during the two-week holiday, so not much has changed over the centuries! The church looked beautiful, with holly, ivy and candlelight, and the congregation of over 30 hung prayer cards on the Christmas tree and lit candles, to remember loved ones. Thank you to everyone who helped decorate the church, provided festive fare of punch, sausage rolls, mince pies and more, and to all who came to the service.
Wishing you a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year.
