Celebrating the Advent Season at The Church of the Epiphany, Gurgaon



Like all times, the advent season started with the putting up of a nativity play by the tiny tots of the Sunday school and then this was followed by the celebration of sports day on the tenth of December. Perhaps the youngest attendee of that event was my Cousin, Sumit's new-born daughter! It was the day of her blessing!


Besides children playing all sorts of games after service, grown-ups too played all sorts of games.





The aroma of the puris being deep fried and the accompanying alloo ki subzui surely drove everyone mad with hunger!






The next most important event was the Candle-light service that took place on the 13th of December, 2017. Pastor Ghazan impressed upon the gathering to proceed outside the church at the end of the service holding lighted candles even as the lights were switched off. The event was marked by the singing of Carols by different groups. My Niece and nephew also sang a song.





Of course to wind up, we were served a most filling warming and satisfying chicken soup courtesy Mrs Rani Ingty ans Mrs Gurjeet.
