Local Church congregations are often fascinated by and interested in strangers popping in, and let's face it : no-one is anonymous in Church.

So the characters should be ambushed by kindly old spinsters, one of the nuns should go out of her way to be friendly and welcoming, oh -- and of course one of the characters (the most handsome and nice-looking one) should be asked to do one of the readings.

Fear ? What will the players do when it turns out that carol singing is required ? When the kindly spinsters are eager to find out how good the characters' singing voices are ? OMG what are the words !!??!?

Not to mention, will the PCs get the in-jokes about the local bishop ?, how will the PCs handle being swarmed by little children and their naughty behaviour ?, what will they do after they are discovered to be heathen strangers, and instead of fire and brimstone they get a kindly and well-meaning offer of coffee and buns with the vicar ?
