CHURCHES Together in Halesowen will be filling the town centre with the sound of Christmas carols on Saturday.

The open air festive celebration in Somers Square, from 11am, will include Bible readings and drama as well as chocolates, balloons and prayer candles for shoppers.

Co-ordinator Joy Howell said the aim was to remind people about the real meaning of Christmas.

“Any passers-by who would like to take a moment from their busy schedule and join in for a carol or two would be very welcome,” she added.
