CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH
Christmas Youth Service
A candlelight carol service will be conducted by the youth fellow’ship of the Trinity Congregational Church next Sunday at 7 p.m. The service, consisting of Christmas carols interspersed with appropriate scripture readings, will be based on the traditional English nine lessons and carols.
Carols will be sung without lighting for the first half hour but when it becomes darker the president of the youth fellowship wiU enter the church carrying a candle. The youths in the congregation will light their own smaller candles from this, and the service will continue in candlelight. An annual event, the service will symbolise Christ bringing the light of his gospel into a dark world. About 10 youths, aged from 15 to 20, have organised the service.
