Our parish countdown to Christmas starts with the Advent Carol Service in St Paul’s this Sunday evening, December 1st, at 7pm. It’s a joint service with St Patrick’s Dalkey, and the combined choirs of both will lead the music, under choir directors Caroline Barnes and Matthew Breen. Advent music is some of the loveliest written for a season during the church year, so take this chance to come along to listen, to sing and to reflect on the accompanying readings.
