Jenny from Mount Maunganui

Our carol service this year is on Sunday December 18 at 4pm, outside on the back lawn beside the church.
It will be a celebration of carols ancient and modern, from Aotearoa and far away, including many of your favourites.

Some carols will be sung by the choir and some by everyone.
Bring your own blankets and chairs. Some seating will be provided.

Join us for supper once the singing has finished.
