ON Christmas Eve there will be a service much loved by children and adults – Blessing the Crib at St Augustine's Church at 4pm. Later on Christmas Eve, again in St Augustine's, there will be ‘Carols by Candlelight at 11pm followed by Midnight Mass at 11.30pm. Another Midnight Mass will be celebrated in St Dochdwy’s, Llandough, at 11.30pm and on Christmas Day there will be Sung Mass in Holy Nativity at 10am.

The Rector, Canon Roger Williams said: "We welcome parishioners and visitors to all our services, and in particular we hope that local children and their parents, grandparents and friends will come along to the Crib Service which is a wonderful way to absorb the real meaning of Christmas before all the excitement of Christmas Day."
