St Barnabas Church, Erdington. There are still activities planned around Christmas at nearby venues.Open air carol service at ErdingtonDec 3 2007
FIRE ravaged church returned to the heart of a Birmingham community as it formed the backdrop to a traditional Christmas celebration.

More than 1,000 people gathered outside the charred remains of St Barnabas Church, in Erdington, for an open air community carol concert.

And they were treated to a light spectacular when the surviving stained glass window and church bell tower were bathed in colour.

The church, which dates from the 18th century and is a Grade II listed building and famed for its stained glass windows, was gutted in a suspected arson attack in October.
Song sheets were handed out to the crowd packed into the High Street and they joined the children with rousing renditions of Away in A Manger, Hark the Herald Angels Sing and Silent Night, backed by the City of Birmingham Brass Band.
