More from my childhood church

Here are a few updated photos from my childhood church, after it’s been fully decorated for the Christmas season. One can see baby Jesus placed on the main altar, as well as lots of flowering vetch, canary seed and other seedlings that are grown in darkness and then displayed on altars around baby Jesus. 

Angels also surround the altar as they herald the news of Jesus’ birth with ‘Glory to God in the highest.’ The work is done by a few enthusiasts led by Niki Papagiorcopulo and Chris Micallef, who are keen on adding a few nostalgic touches and ecclesiastical paraphernalia they find hidden in the sacristy.
