What is a Christingle service?

It's basically a children's service, which we've incorporated into our Christmas Eve early evening carol service. There is a basic description of the meaning of the Christingle, and then they are lit and passed to all the congregation, typically with the children making sure everyone receives one.

The children themselves make the Christingles the preceding Sunday, while the grownups work on "The Greening of the Church" -- decorating it for the Christmas season to come.
