Community Carols

What a delight! We've just enjoyed watching this years Carols by Candlelight. An annual highlight is Marina Pryor, but our 2007 favourite song award goes to Anthony Callea for his heart-stirring rendition of O Holy Night!

Full marks to Ray Martin for his comment ~ "The reason that we get together each Christmas here in the Bowl is the celebration of Jesus' birth." It certainly set the scene for an inspiring community night that managed to achieve all its agendas.

John 1:14 (MSG) ~ "The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood. We saw the glory with our own eyes, the one-of-a-kind glory, like Father, like Son. Generous inside and out, true from start to finish."

I agree with you the Carols this year were magical, and also for me Anthony Callea's hauntingly beautiful rendition of 'O Holy Night' was the highlight of the night for me, it was something very special that I won't forget.

I did enjoy all the performances, Marina was wonderful as always,but the heartwarming performance from the Choir of Hard Knocks also stood out for me and well done to Ray Martin for reminding everyone the reason of what Christmas is about.
