Advent Carol Service
Miss Fletcher sent this report:
On a crisp December evening, Maidstone's All Saints' Church was full to capacity, once again, for Invicta's Advent Carol Service. There was a palpable sense of stillness and calm from the outset, created by the combined choir's rendition of 'The Lamb' by John Tavener. This was followed by a varied programme of carols and readings, which explored the Christmas story. The nave was repeatedly filled with beautiful sounds from the Vocal Harmony Group, Chamber Choir, School Choir and Year 7s and 8s. Several soloists are to be commended for their performances, including Bethany-Kirstyn Ogbuaga, Madeleine Clark, Olivia Moore and Charlotte Rose Wells. A retiring collection was taken for the school charities. Thank you to all those who took part and supported this memorable evening, which was such a welcome respite from the hurly-burly and commercial pressures of this 'Festive' season.' A special thank you to Rev Ian Parrish, who once again officiated the service.
