St Collen's carol service to be broadcast by BBC radio

Echoes of last night's Carols by Candlelight service at St Collen's will be heard across Wales on Christmas Eve.

A team from BBC Radio Wales were in the church to record the seasonal event for broadcast at 11.30pm on December 24 as part of the station's Celebration series of programmes.

Earlier in the day people connected with the Genesis Project to re-order the historic place of worship and the Collen Players, who appear in regular music hall and variety shows in the Community Hall, were interviewed by the BBC about how these reflect St Collen's community involvement. These interviews will be aired at 7am on Christmas morning. 

The well attended evening service, conducted by Father Lee Taylor and which saw members of the congregation each bearing candles in a beautifully low-lit church, included a programme of well-known hymns, readings and prayer on a Christmas theme. 

Later mince pies and mulled wine were served in the Community Hall.
