On Saturday 27th November we went to the wonderful candle-lit Advent Carol Service at Lichfield cathedral. It is really a memorable occasion, beginning in complete darkness, with first just one candle being lit, then several, then many, then literally hundreds as the the service takes us on a pilgrimage – a journey from darkness into light – about the light of Christ illuminating even the darkest corners of our lives.
Lichfield Cathedral once again hosted the Joint Emergency, Police & Fire, Carol concert on Sunday 12th December, and we were delighted to be invited by Chief Constable Emma Barnett.
Unfortunately numbers from the Fire Service were much depleted due to Covid-19 isolations, and the Police filled in for them on some of the readings.
