Christmas Eve Service

We went to the 10:30pm service at church tonight... I'm not even sure why they have such a late one. Is it a throwback to Midnight Mass (even though we're Episcopalian, not Catholic)?

This photo is of the front of the church (I took it after the service, so I think that's allowed) - it's a cruciform shape, so the altar area is kind of removed from the main portion.

Anyhoo, the place was PACKED even at that late hour, but the church did look beautiful with all the greenery and poinsettias. And we sang lots of Christmas Carols, which I always appreciate.

Also the lit chandelier looks awesome!
