Have you ever heard a talking donkey or sheep? Well, this Christmas Eve there will be both at Kamloops United Church. Listen to the donkey and the sheep tell the story of Jesus’ birth from their perspective while the Harmony in Hands Bell Ringers provide musical accompaniment. This forty minute service of carol singing and the nativity drama is perfect for younger families and all who are young at heart. Come and hear what the donkey and the sheep have to say! Please join us. Christmas Eve Family Service – 4:00 p.m.

8:00 pm Christmas Eve Candlelight Service with vocal and bell choirs: Folk of Note & Bells of Note.

This year we are starting the Candlelight Service at 8:00 p.m. so you can have a relaxing supper before coming out to this classic Christmas Eve Candlelight service. This service is overflowing with music – from solos to carol singing, from vocal and bell choirs to flute, trumpet, organ, piano and even some percussion. Along with the music, we will hear the Christmas story and then pass the light from candle to candle as we sing Silent Night. You are invited to this magical time as we welcome the mystery of Christmas. Please join us.
