We hope all who wished to were able to attend a service on Christmas Eve. Whether you were at St. Paul's or elsewhere, we know that coming together with a community of believers on this holy night is a powerful and important part of the year for many people. At the 5:00 PM service at St. Paul's, we invite the children and youth to be the ones who share the story of the birth of Jesus. We share here with you these beautiful photographs (taken by our multi-talented sexton Andrew Brundrett) to allow you a peek into this experience. May your holidays be filled with laughter, wonder and joy as ours were during this pageant.
