A Christmas service with a difference, which promises to bring home the true meaning of the season, is on offer at St Peter's in Onchan this evening.

The church is hosting an 'alternativity' with an international flavour.

It features carols, solos, readings and even a power point presentation, with speakers in languages including Polish, Arabic, Afrikaans and Cantonese!

Polish Voice, a choir made up of young Polish women new to the Island, will be singing some traditional carols from their homeland.

Christian Aid's Phil Craine is one of the organisers (audio file attached):
