Advent Lessons and Carols is a special service presented by the Christ Church Choir, who form a procession and sing throughout the church to symbolize the coming of God. Many scripture readings and congregational Advent carols complete the service, and Holy Eucharist is offered. It’s a wonderful way to prepare for Christmas and a great occasion to invite friends and family! This is part of our first Saturday 5 PM series of major choral services.
