Colmar’s English-speaking community presents its traditional Advent and Christmas carol service on Tuesday, December 12, at the Protestant Church of Harborg-Viher.

Rev. the priest of Horbourg-Wihr and Bischwihr. Véronique Spindler and the priest of Saint-Alban Anglican Church in Strasbourg Rev. Dr. The service is celebrated by Mark Barwick. Christmas carols are performed by Free Sounds, an English-speaking women’s choir directed by Agnes Keller. A worship sheet allows everyone to follow along and participate.
