A Service of Lessons and Carols

December 15, 2024 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

The annual Festival of Lessons and Carols will be held on Sunday, December 15, at 5 p.m. It is patterned after the Christmas Eve service held in King’s College Chapel. The Festival was introduced in 1918 to bring a more imaginative approach to worship. First broadcast in 1928, it is now broadcast to millions of people around the world. The service has become a staple of Episcopal churches in the United States and has even spread to other denominations. Readings by members of St. Andrew’s and invited guests from the State College community are followed by carols and anthems from the choirs and carols sung by the congregation.

Our own St. Andrew’s tradition, a festive reception hosted by Parish Life, will be held in Canterbury Hall following the service.
