Wolverhampton Rotary Clubs Christmas Carol Service- A Great Success.

On December 9th there was a large turnout for the club’s carol service held at the beautiful Ukrainian Catholic church as a result of the strong bond of friendship that has been formed with the Wolverhampton Association of Ukrainian citizens in the UK.

We were honoured by the presence of the Mayor of Wolverhampton, Councillor Doctor Mike Hardacre, the Mayoress Ms Lynn Plant and District Governor Rotarian Mukunda Chidrawar.

It was a particular pleasure to have attendees from the Rotary clubs of Tettenhall and Bilston and Wolverhampton West with the service being ably conducted by Rotarian The Reverend Allen Roberts from the Tettenhall club and a message delivered by The Very Reverend Father David Senyk who had travelled from Coventry to be with us.

Various club members delivered a series of bible readings and special thanks are due to Peter Wright for his faultless organisation of the event and in particular to Rotarian Robyn Davies from the Rotary club of The Wrekin who once again provided our musical accompaniment.

The service was followed by a most enjoyable gathering for refreshments at the Razom Ukarianin social centre and we are, as always, indebted to our friend Hryhorij Kowalazuk – known to us as ‘Greg,’ for making the facilities available to us.
