Boost from annual fair
A KICKSTART was given to the season of goodwill, as an amazing £3,286 was raised towards church funds during a school’s Christmas fair. A range of activities at St
Mary’s RC Primary School in Langho, attracted hundreds of parishioners. Attractions on the day
included a'grotto, various colour-co-ordinated stalls with a big chocolate tombola stall,r all helping to raise money for - St Mary’s Church in Langho. . The afternoon also included
an opportunity for youngsters to sample face painting and enter the grand prize draw
. which raised £1,000. Parish • organisers were
extremely-happyi with the excellent turnout and success of the occasion, but were exceptionally inspired by the magnificent community sup port. Our picture shows children
from the school giving up their Saturday to help at the annual fair. (GB061203)-

Piece of royal history
AROUND 450 people attended the annual public carol service at Stonyhurst College, the biggest congregation in living memory. "We always try to make the service
something special," said Jonathan Hewat, marketing and admissions manager, "and this year was no exception. The choir sang “Christus Natus Est” from a copy of the Gradualis which we hold in our library. We also put the copy on display." The 18th Century volume is one of six,
which went to Stonyhurst in 1950 when the then Duke of Wellington donated them. "They were originally produced for the
King and Queen of Spain to be sung in the royal chapel in Granada," said curator Jan Graffius. "So not only did we hear the music that
the King and Queen of Spain heard, but the congregation was also able to see the ancient manuscript." The Gradualis is pictured in St Peter’s
Church flanked by altar servers, left, Patrick Kwok (14), from Hong Kong, and Min-Sung Kim (14), from Putney, Lon don, and, right, Tim Lewis (14), from Hurst Green, who sang the solo in "Once in Royal David's City", and Stonyhurst Col lege chaplain Fr Matthew Power, (s)
