Did you know? 🎄 Early carols were pagan, celebratory dances for the Winter Solstice, long before Christmas. ⭐️ The word “carol” meant a song or dance of joy. 🎄 The first documented carol service was at Truro Cathedral in 1880, sparking the modern tradition of caroling in churches. (1/2)

Tonight!

Just one week until Christmas Eve! 🎄⭐️🎄 Behind the scenes at @burybachchoir, we’re battling it out in our own version of The World Cup of Carols. Who knew that carols could be so contentious? Will it be Hark the Herald or Ding Dong Merrily on High? Gaudete or Carol of the Bells? (1/2)
