Christmas Carols & Readings Service Cancelled

Very reluctantly the PCC has decided to cancel Carols and Readings at St Mary’s Chilton 5pm on
Saturday 18th December.

Chilton carols have for many years been the highlight of our church calendar. It is always very well supported and with refreshments and a visit from Father Christmas has become something much loved by our community. BUT we are very aware that this new COVID variant is spreading faster than any seen before and therefore in the interests of keeping our community safe we have reluctantly taken the sad decision not to go ahead.

We wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

carol service

Christmas Carol Service at St Mary’s – Saturday 18th December

Please join us for Christmas carols and readings

in the churchyard at St Mary’s church, Chilton

at 5pm on Saturday 18th of December

In view of the new Covid advice, we feel that it would be safer to hold our carol concert outside in the churchyard, so please dress warmly and be sure to bring a torch. Adults should wear a mask.

We hope to be able to offer mince pies after the service and ……..to have a visit from Father Christmas

We’ll review our plans on Friday, so please keep a look out for further information.
