The Bengairn Parishes held their gift service in Auchencairn Church the same day as their linked parish at Castle Douglas.
Both congregations brought gifts for children and young people, which were collected by members of the local social work team to be distributed locally.
Meanwhile, Castle Douglas has been hosting its Christmas tree festival which was restricted to congregational groups due to the issues surrounding Covid. All who have come to view the trees enjoyed the creativity in the tree decorations.
