Journey to the Manger: A Service of Nine Lessons and Carols
You are warmly invited to experience the timeless story of Christmas unfolded through scripture and song at our Service of Nine Lessons and Carols.
Hear the Prophecy: Trace the story of redemption, from the first promise in the Garden of Eden to the glorious birth in Bethlehem, narrated through nine concise, powerful readings (Lessons).
Sing the Joy: Be enveloped by the majestic sound of classic carols and choral anthems, performed by our choir, which illuminate the ancient texts and fill the space with festive beauty.
Share the Wonder: Step away from the rush of the season into an atmosphere of peaceful reflection and sacred wonder, celebrating the true meaning of Christmas.

Gather your family and friends and join us for this beautiful tradition — a perfect way to prepare your heart for Christmas Day.
