Advent is here

St Alban’s choir woke up from their sleep-over in the church to the sight of this year’s giant Christmas tree being raised, and subsequently contributed to the decoration.  If you are in the church on Sunday, or come in for a concert or carol service, be sure to take a look.

The Christmas services have now been added to the calendar.
