A popular church service will be held this evening at an unusual venue.
Churches together in Castletown is staging a 'Christingle' in the open space at the centre of Callow's Yard.
'Christingle' means 'Christ light' - as in 'light of the world' - and the service features the presentation of oranges at the alter by members of the congregation.
