Every year, Christmas seems to arrive suddenly, but this year we did the four Sundays of advent plus Christmas Eve all at once, on December 12.
That is to say, we did a month's worth of candle lighting all on one Sunday morning, for the sake of explaining the meaning of Christmas to those who gathered.
A number of us did the introduction and lighting of the candles and the scripture readings. Of course for each candle there was a corresponding Christmas carol. Perhaps you'll recognize this one:
Yes, that's right. O Come All Ye Faithful, verse 4. Of course, what's a Christmas celebration without a turkey dinner? We had a 10 pound turkette, so we carefully removed every scrap of meat from it and had nothing left over after our meal together.
