December’s Update Nicholforest Church had a most successful Christmas Carol Service led by Rev Eric Robinson. The church was full of families who helped create a lively Nativity scene. We had excellent readers of all ages and beautiful music (thanks especially to the organist Graeme Brownlee). The Christingle Service was a joy-filled gathering of young and old followed by the Midnight Mass led by Bishop Peter Ramsden. This was the perfect introduction to Christmas Day when we mark the birth of Jesus Christ. The Church was packed again for the first Nicholforest Christmas Concert. Thank you to The Esk Singers and organist Graeme Brownlee for the music and to Nicholforest Parish Council who kindly supported the event with a small grant. The concert raised over £500 for the Church and the Children's Society. We wish to thank all those who donated flowers and gave their time to decorating the church for the festive season. Particular appreciation goes to Brenda Davidson whose porch decorations were very popular with families taking pictures.
