Christmas Carol Themed Service Trinity Church Auckland

On the evening of December 17th, Sunday, in New Zealand's largest Christian church - Trinity Church (HOLI TRINITY CATHEDRAL), there was a grand Christmas service, participating in the whole process as a Visitor. The service began at half past seven, lasting an hour, most of the more than a thousand seats were filled, mostly middle-aged and elderly couples. The service was divided into nine units, in addition to the church pastor, the deputy mayor of Auckland (in a green dress), and representatives of major ethnic groups in New Zealand such as Pacific Islanders, Maoris, etc. also gave speeches. Interspersed with the choir and believers standing up to sing hymns. The languages used included English, Maori, and Arabic. Due to language limitations and lack of understanding of religion, the content could not be fully understood, but it was roughly a review of the scene of Jesus' birth and praising Jesus for bringing freedom and happiness to mankind, etc. The beautiful sound of the pipe organ, and the singing of the choir and believers, made one feel the sanctity and warmth of religion. Trinity Church in Auckland is very large, the front half of the building has a long history, it is a stone building, the high arch is majestic and sacred. The latter half was expanded in the 1990s, the church has stained glass windows, and the exterior is more modern. This church is a landmark building in Auckland, in addition to services, it also hosts concerts, etc.
