The Christmas Candle
From bestselling author, Max Lucado, comes The Christmas Candle, a timeless holiday film for the entire family. Deep in the heart of the English countryside lies the enchanting village of Gladbury. Legend has it every 25 years an angel visits the village candlemaker and touches a single candle. Whoever lights this candle receives a miracle on Christmas Eve. But in 1890, at the dawn of the electric age, this centuries old legend may come to an end. When David Richmond (Hans Matheson), a progressive young minister, arrives in Gladbury, the villagers discover a new formula for miracles: good deeds and acts of kindness. While David's quest to modernize Gladbury sets him at odds with the old world candlemaker, he finds an unlikely ally in the lovely skeptic, Emily Barstow (Samantha Barks). Now, the fiery candlemaker must fight to preserve the legacy of the Christmas Candle. But when the candle goes missing, the miraculous and human collide in the most astonishing Christmas the village of Gladbury has ever seen. (c) Official Facebook
Like books, I like a good film also as they offer you some escapism from everyday life which for myself I need to do on a regular basis.
Last night purely by chance I came across a film called The Christmas Candle. I did not know anything about it. However it had a lovely cast in it. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the surprise was that Susan Boyle (the singer) plays a part in it. Her voice is magnificent and thoroughly adds to the charm of this film. Essentially though this is a lovely feelgood heartwarming story. One to watch.
To listen to Susan singing the Hymn/Carol called the Miracle Hymn go here:
After a difficult day it helped calm me down but one I think that will be joining my Christmas films collection.
Catch you later.
