CHRISTMAS AT TRINITY
Christmas Eve by Candlelight
Traditional carols, candlelight and the Christmas story, followed by warm drinks and cookies. Everyone is welcome.
Thursday 24 December, 19:00-20:00
"I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord."
CAROLS WE WILL SING
Songs you will know and love
Sing along with familiar Christmas carols. The words are shown on screen, so there is nothing to bring and every voice is welcome. We close with Silent Night as the candles are lit.
