Carols for Christmas: This popular and informal evening at the Village Hall will be held on Tuesday 22nd December when the sound of carols and readings will be led by Bob Andrew at the piano. Mulled wine and mince pies will be served between 6.30pm and 8.30pm and you’re welcome to stay for as long or short a time as you wish. It’s always a happy and delightful time to get into the spirit of Christmas.

St Laurence Church: On Christmas Eve the Crib service will be held at 3pm and the Midnight Mass is at 11.30pm. On Christmas Day this year the Family Communion service will be held at Crowhurst at 10am. Details of these and all services can be found in the December issue of the Parish Magazine which is available in the church or from the Village Store price 50 pence.

Village Voice: I’d like to wish all friends and readers a very joyful and peaceful Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year.
