Carols by Candlelight at Dunmurry

Despite the presence of Storm Darragh on Friday, 6th December we still were able to hold our well-attended service of Carols by Candlelight featuring Harmonic Sounds Concert Band under the direction of Paul Hamilton. It was a great evening and the whole service was livestreamed. You can watch the service here:

The service was conducted by the minister, Rev Dr David Steers, and our readers came from our own Church and our sister churches. They were David Kerr (First Church, Belfast), Kathy Yuille, Sylvia McBride, Adele Johnston, Diana Taggart, Erin Black, Rev Chris Hudson (All Souls’ Church, Belfast), Gilbert Cameron, Rev Chris Carson (Church of Ireland).

The Church was beatifully decorated both outside and in.

And many of those present were able to come over to the Hall for refreshments after the service.

Carols at Dunmurry

Every Christmas Carol has its own backstory but there is none more intricate and unusual than O Come, all ye faithful, which is also one of the most universally popular of all Carols.

At Dunmurry we are really looking forward to our Carols by Candlelight service on Friday, 15th December at 7.30 pm when we will welcome Harmonic Sounds Concert Band with their Director of Music, Paul Hamilton. We will tell the story of Christmas through traditional carols and the traditional Christmas readings given by church members and friends from other churches. Everyone is welcome.
