This afternoon I am leading a service of Nine Lessons and Carols at Holy Trinity Wonston - my parish church. (I am greatful to Skink 74 for posting this nice view of the church on Flickr.) This service retells the Nativity of Christ through nine readings from the Bible and a series of relevant Christmas Carols. I hope the heating has been on for a couple of days!
With snow on the ground and the air crisp and dry, it seems very appropriate to be celebrating Christmas in this way - even though it is nothing like the reality of what we are actually celebrating.
My in-laws have flown in a day early to make sure they can make this service. Just as well ther's no sermon!
