From 6pm the beautiful Princes Square will be abuzz with classical music, children playing and the smell of a giant barbeque. Each year City Baptist Church puts on this free community meal. And everyone is invited – no exceptions!
At 7pm a creative Carols Service will be held over the road in the magnificent City Baptist Church building. Jazz musician Steve Cooper will host a one-hour program that will feature various musicians including the Choir of High Hopes. This service is crafted to suit both the street community and families of all ages.
A huge free supper then follows in one of Launceston’s most significant buildings, Milton Hall (next door to the church). Originally the St Johns Square Chapel, Milton Hall has been a landmark in our city since 1841. It has also been the site of significant moments in local and national history.
So taste community, enter into history, celebrate Christmas – all in one evening.
Jeff McKinnon, City Baptist Church
