Lessons and Carols

The Choir of St. Louis Church, under the direction of organist/choirmaster Frank Scinta, will present a Festival of Lessons and Carols on Sunday, December 18th at 5:00PM in St. Louis Church. Featured will be carols and anthems of Ord, Wood, Praetorius, Forrest and others.

The service of Lessons and Carols traces, in scripture and song, the Nativity story as foretold by Old Testament prophets and narrated by Gospel writers. Begun in King’s College Chapel, Cambridge University, more than a century ago, the service of Lessons and Carols is repeated in churches of nearly every denomination worldwide. Please join us for this beloved holiday tradition!
