"It was Christmas Eve 1914, and we could see lights coming from the German trenches … they were decorating Christmas trees. As the guns fell silent, the sound of singing could be heard. We recognised Silent Night/Stille Nacht and started trading verses. A spontaneous truce broke out as we put down our weapons and climbed out of the trenches, crossing 'no man's land' to greet one another and exchange souvenirs. It was a Christmas I’ll always remember."
100 years on as the world commemorates the centenary of the First World War, the Christmas Truce of 1914 is remembered as a breakthrough of peace amid such a terrible conflict.
SGM Lifewords is all about freely sharing the Bible in a one-to-one way. We create Bible resources and digital content, we run Bible programmes with partners, and we pioneer new projects to engage people with the Bible in their own language and culture.
We hope you enjoyed our carol singing on the Parade today. We'll be back on Christmas Eve in The Square at 10.30am, when members of all the churches in the village will be joining together again to share some festive cheer.
