Join the Maestro for a series of Mini episode over the next week in between Christmas and New Year
Today’s episode is the carol Angel Voices Richly Blending
‘Quem Pastores Laudavere’ dates back to the 14th century and is widely known throughout the Christian world. Although the melody has been set to a number of different texts in different countries it was originally a carol celebrating the Christmas story, in particular the visit of the Angel Gabriel to the shepherds.

Today’s episode is an organ arrangement of A spotless rose. It’s an ancient Christmas Carol and Marian hymn, which makes reference to Isaiah – the incarnation of Christ and the aTree of Jesse
Lord our God, our light and our life, in our longing to live by your Word we lift our eyes to you. Let your Word come into our hearts. Let your Word help us to understand our lives and our time, so that we can recognize your leading in everything and gather courage every day in spite of our weakness, sins, and faults. We can still find joy, for your kingdom is coming. We can feel that you are among us, however great the anguish of these times. Let the light of Jesus Christ shine out; let your Spirit of peace and grace come to all nations so that your will may be done. Free people from all their confusion. Release them from their bondage. Make them free for what is good, true, and eternal. May your name be praised among us today and forevermore. Amen.
Our Christmas Eve Nativity Service takes place online this year via this website, Facebook and YouTube. Use whatever website/link works best for you!
Our Young Church have been busy this year with this online presentation of the Nativity and it does not disappoint. They’ve had to be imaginative as it all had to be recorded individually at home, then sent in, then edited, then all stitched together into this 50minute service of drama, readings and songs.
We must thank Robyn and Emily Aitken who were the co-writers and co-producers this year. Girls, you have done a wonderful job, keeping the Nativity special, but in bringing it right up to date for 2020!
Although we are in our homes, we have creatively retold the story of the Birth of Christ in a virtual setting, with participants from all parts of our Church Family.
