CAROL SERVICE 

Calary Church will hold its traditional candlelight Carol Service at 7 pm on Wednesday 21 December, which will be followed by mulled wine and mince pies in the Church Room. As usual, it will be an evening of lessons and carols for everyone to enjoy and take part in.  

This year, we will be joined by special guests Adeleh Davis on trumpet, soprano Maria Gorman and our own parish choir. We look forward to welcoming you but, if you can’t make it, we would like to wish you all a blessed and peaceful Christmas.  

Please also keep an eye out for the star which is again on Calary Church tower to lighten the darkness and bring some festive cheer to the Calary area. 

UKULELE LESSONS

Looking to start a new hobby in 2023? Following on from the super success of our Tuesday morning Adult Ukulele class, I will be adding an extra evening class in the new year on Tuesday evenings in Roundwood Parish Hall. Classes will start January 10th and will run every week from 10.00-11.00am and 6.30-7.30pm. 

The Adult Beginner class is open to everyone and anyone, but mostly to those who would love to sing and learn an instrument but have never taken the plunge before! 

This is a great opportunity to sing for fun, learn something new and take some time out for yourself. Please contact Linda on 087-9729956 for more information and to book your place.
