Benefice Advent Service of light

On Sunday 1st December we welcomed the season of Advent with an atmospheric candlelit service of readings and music.

St James’s Church was decorated with seasonal greenery and candles for the occasion and the path to the church was lit with tea lights to welcome people.

The organist and choir played and sang the most wonderful anthems and led the congregation in singing specially chosen Advent hymns.

You can hear the choir singing Adam Lay Ybounden by playing the clip below.
