1906 Christmas Day Celebration at Christ Church in Pelham
As Christians celebrate Christmas 2009 the world over this day, it
seemed appropriate to provide some Christmas-related history on the
Historic Pelham Blog. I have written of Christmas in Pelham on the Blog
before. See:
Monday, September 21, 2009: January 1882
Account of the 1881 Christmas Festival Held at the Union Sabbath School in
Pelhamville.
Today's posting transcribes a brief schedule of the Christmas Day
festivities at Christ Church in Pelham Manor on Tuesday, December 25, 1906
and in the days that followed.
"Christ Church, Pelham.
The services for Christmas Day will include Holy Communion at 8.30 a.m.
Service with special music, sermon and Holy Communion at 11 o'clock.
The Christmas tree for the Sunday School will be held in the church on
Thursday, December 27th, at 3.30 p.m.
At the annual vestry election of Christ Church, T. H. Bridgeman of Pelham
Heights, and G. F. Pelham of New Rochelle, were elected."
