On 18 December the Church of St Mary’s will be magically transformed with decorated Christmas trees everywhere. Local schools, businesses and community groups are all decorating trees which will be displayed throughout the building in a magnificent festive display. The celebrations for the Christmas Tree Festival will kick off in style with Cracking Carols and Christmas Cheer on Thursday 18 December at 7:30 p.m. at St Mary’s — an evening of fun for all the family with carols, music and jolly readings to get us all in the festive spirit. And there’ll be plenty of well known carols we can all join in with. Admission is free, and there are refreshments too. A collection will be taken at the end to support Kinmos. So put the date in your diaries now and we look forward to seeing you there.
