Christmas Lessons & Carols 2024
Sunday December 15, 2024 at 5:00pm
Third Sunday in Advent
“And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”
Luke 2:13-14
The candlelight Carol Service is a tradition going back more than 40 years at St. Paul’s. Once again we are pleased to offer the service of Nine Lessons and Carols — a time-honored way to tell the Christmas story through music, scripture, and prayer. Across the world, Anglicans listen to the familiar readings, choral anthems, and join in carols sung by the congregation.
A reception in the Parish Hall will follow, all are welcome.
