Standing room only at Chilton Carol Service

The annual candlelit Carol Service at Chilton, which is always a busy event,  was amazingly well attended this year.

Some 160 people managed to cram into the Church, although it was standing room only for some, and I understand that some people gave up and went home!

Undaunted by the size of the crowd the Friends of St Mary's, Chilton, pressed on with providing refreshments to all after the service.   I understand that although the mince pies ran out, there was enough mulled wine for all.

As usual the Church looked marvellous, with seasonal decorations by Beryl,  and the new oil lamps meant that we could all read our service sheets.  The quality of the singing was first rate and the choice of carols happily traditional.


It was a great way to start the Christmas festivities!
Standing room only!
