2018 Christmas Carol Service

On Sunday 16th HCC opened its doors to the community for it's Christmas Carol Service.  This was to be a big event and in fact an unprecendented amount of planning and organisation went in to this year's service.  We welcomed a large number of worshipers keen to celebrate the birth of Jesus (more than four times the number present at last year's inaugural Carol Service, and approximately three times the number present on a routine Sunday).
New for this year, whereas the service was still led by our Pastor, Rev. Karen Bassett, the carols were all led by a professional local Christian entertainer.  Wendy Adams-Evans really brought the carols to life and helped us to raise the roof singing well-known favourites in a great mix of traditional and contemporary style.  She proved enormously popular and we all thoroughly enjoyed the choice of carols.
The afternoon was rounded-off with mulled wine and mince pies for all.
Below are some images from the day.
