COME ALL YE FAITHFUL

 

 ...even if you're not...

Planning your diary for this week? Got a bit of spare evening time? How about a festive sing-song? It's the carol service at Huish Episcopi on Wednesday...and you don't have to be a fully signed-up Christian to go along. According to The Church of England press office at Wells Cathedral "Everybody's welcome!"

"To be honest," said a spokesman, "the choir at St Mary's in Huish are usually so hungover most of December, the vicar there could do with all the help she can get."
Carry On Langport heartily agrees...and for those of you thinking "Humbug - no thanks not intertested" just a thought...how many of you have had your kids christened? Who's been to a church wedding or funeral? 

We all use the church now and then so maybe go and give it some support at Christmas eh. Even better, everyone piles down to the pub straight after for the after party...including the bellringers (in case you've got any complaints)


Even staff at Cracknells are getting in the Christmas spirit.

Go on give it a go, and when you get to the bit when everyone goes down on their knees (no, not Priest Lane - that's the first Sunday of the month) to pray and you don't want to...just close your eyes and double check you know where you're getting your veg from for the 25th.

Can't sing? So what, nor can half the church wardens. Go for it Scrooge or we'll send Jacob Marley to sort you out. (Or Chris Osborne if we can't get hold of Jacob) 

The carol service is on Wednesday and begins at 6.30pm.
