Christmas at Tumby Bay Uniting Church

The Tumby Bay Uniting Church hosted its Christmas celebration on Christmas Eve last year.

About 100 people gathered together to celebrate the joy of Christmas.

The church was lit with fairy lights to create warmth and ambience, symbolic of Christmas, Jesus being the light of the world.

David Parker was the lead singer on guitar, accompanied by Christine Charlton on keyboard.

Main singer was Jacque Ogilvy, and Georgina Hurst accompanied for the final items.

A special item of the Christmas Hallelujah was sung by Tahlia Lambell, beautifully singing acapella.

The children were sweet singing Jingle Bell Rock, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Away in a Manger.

Pastor Ruth Parker shared a Christmas message.
