St Lawrence Church in Abbots Langley will come alive with Christmas carols and dazzling lights at its annual event on Thursday, December 4.
The Carol Concert will start at 6pm followed by a lucky programme winner switching on the Christmas lights.
Councillor Jane Lay, chairman of ALPC, and Reverend Dr Peter Wardell are set to lead the event with a warm welcome.
The village will be filled with the sound of music, as choruses will be sung by all along with students from Abbots Langley Primary School and supported by Watford Brass Band.
A charity collection will also be available for the community with all proceeds going to the Friends of St Lawrence who raise funds for the preservation of the village’s ancient church building.
The church will be serving hot chocolate and other activities include stories in Abbots Langley Library starting at 5.15pm and a competition for the younger children.
Some of the High Street shops will be open late, including Over the Moon and The Hospice of St Francis.
Speaking to Abbots News, cllr Lay said: “I look forward to welcoming everyone and hearing you all singing more loudly this year with children jumping up and down to Jingle Bells.
“Hopefully the weather will be kind to us, the lights will be bright, the music loud, we just need to raise the roof with our singing.
“Please give generously if you are able, to the volunteers collecting for Friends of St Lawrence.
“While you are there, be sure to visit this year’s new Christmas tree installation in the Millennium Gardens which will help further brighten up our village.”
