LIME ROCK — Parishioners gathered outside Trinity Episcopal Church on Saturday, Nov. 29 for a festive evening of tree lighting, carol singing and a chance to try handmade doughnuts.

The carolers, led by Trinity’s musical director Christine Gevert — tucked inside the church vestibule with an electric keyboard — launched into the first songs promptly at 5 p.m. Moments later, the tree lights were turned on, adding a glow to the gathering.

About 20 minutes later, with the carols and pop tunes finished and the cold settling in, the group headed inside to warm up and investigate the cider and doughnuts.

The latter were fried in bacon fat by John Lloyd, dusted lightly with confectioner’s sugar, and carried out to the hungry crowd.
