What a simply wonderful Christmas celebration we had this year! A huge thank you to all those who took part in and helped to make the Carols and Nativity Tableau such a success with over 100 people attending. Thank you too for the generous donations to the ShelterBox charity and for the presents for Katharine House Hospice. Maybe next year we will get a donkey into church as well as the lamb - X29 renamed Natalie!
