Christmas Day for children

Year A

18.00 - Saturday 24 December 2011

St Edmund King & Martyr Church


Musician's notes:

We will start singing carols 20 minutes before the Mass begins. The lights will go out as we sing to try to set the atmosphere and quieten the assembly ready for the Mass.

There is now a folder available for instruments containing simple parts and arrangements.
