After a hugely successful launch in 2018, the Christmas carol service returned to Raphoe Mart last week.
Farmers, mart staff and families gathered on Friday for an evening of songs and poems, directed by none other than Mart manager Anne Harkin.
It was a truly special evening as the community brought some wonderful Christmas spirit to the mart ring.
