A Carol Service was held in First Dromore Presbyterian Church
last Sunday afternoon (17th December). The minister, the Rev
Keith Duddy conducted the service and welcomed the large
congregation. Greta Baxter - Organist and the Church Choir sang �Like a candle
flame�, �Midnight� and �He became poor to ransom my soul (with
solo part by Arlene Poots)�. Elizabeth Humphries on keyboard and
the Praise Group sang �Winter Song� and �O Holy Night�. The
organist, choir and praise group led the congregational singing
of well-known carols - �O come, all you faithful�, �Angels from
the realms of glory�, �Come and join the celebration�, �Silent
night� and �Hark! The herald angels sing�. The readings were:
Isaiah 9:2-7 by Pamela Gibson (Girls Brigade), Luke 1:26-38 by
Matthew Poots (Boys Brigade), Luke 2:1-7 by Lauren Alderdice
(Sunday School), Luke 2:8-20 by Alan Poots (Congregational
Committee) and John 18:28-40 by Cecil Gamble (Session). Speaking from John 18:37, the Rev Keith Duddy explained that
Christ was born in order to testify to the truth. The Lord Jesus
Christ came to declare the truth that God is a great and mighty
King and the parallel truth that people need His saving and
keeping presence in their lives. In wishing people a very happy
Christmas, Mr Duddy challenged the congregation to accept
nothing but the truth at Christmas. Following the service tea was served in the Church Hall.
