Join us for this beautiful service combining Advent hymns and choir anthems. The choir will sing works by Carol McClure, Martha Burford, Kerensa Briggs, June Nixon and J.S. Bach. The Junior Choir, Family Choir and Handbell Choir will also participate.
The Advent Lessons and Carols service includes nine lessons and nine carols related to the Advent story (without sermon or communion), with the carols following each lesson illustrating what was read.
The tradition of Advent Lessons and Carols dates to the 1930s and evolved from an older tradition of Christmas Lessons and Carols, first sung at Truro Cathedral on Christmas Eve of 1880 – the same year St. Philip’s was organized.
The nursery will be available from 6:15 to 7:45 p.m. for children 5 and under.
