Hope for Belper were once again asked if we would like to bless the people at the Christmas Eve Carol Service in the market place.
We were fortunate to be able to use the Salvation Army kitchen again and also to have the loan of many large catering pump flasks.
Around 800 cups of steaming hot chocolate were served on a very cold night to some very appreciative people. It was great to see some new faces helping out this year including the Belper Baptist Church Youth Group and their leaders.
There were some good opportunities for conversations whilst people were stood having there hot chocolate and we felt it was a great way to spend a couple of hours at the beginning of the festive season!
