Advent Lessons and Carols: Sunday, December 18

You are invited to join The Chapel on Sunday, December 18 at 10:00 am for a Service of Nine Lessons and Carols.  The Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols was made famous by the Christmas Eve Service at King College Chapel, Cambridge.  The service was first broadcast by the British Broadcasting Corporation in 1928 and continues today. The service combines scripture and music to tell the story of the expectation and birth of Christ.

The story of the fall of humanity, the promise of the Messiah, and the birth of Jesus is told in nine short scripture readings from Genesis, Isaiah, and the gospels.  Christmas carols will include It Came Upon the Midnight Clear, Away in a Manger, The First Noel, and Angels We Have Heard on High.
