On this past Christmas Eve, I decided to pop along to two village church services, one in the afternoon, at All Saints in Monk Sherborne, and Midnight Mass, at Pamber Priory in Pamber End. (I was at home in Hampshire spending the holidays with my family.) I really do enjoy attending church at Christmas time - it always seems so theatrical - I love the sounds of the organ and the ringing bells, the smell of the old, cold stone walls, and the way in which our little village churches are lit up like beacons at night.
