The St. John’s Adult and Youth Choirs;
Scott Lamlein, organist and choirmaster.

In the tradition of King’s College, Cambridge, prepare your soul for the Christmas miracle with carols for choir and organ. This event is a long-standing tradition at St. John’s – a “must” to center your soul during the Advent season.

This concert is free admission, suggested donation $20, no tickets required. A reception follows in the church hall with an art show by local artist Lisa Bell, whose art is inspired by liturgy, music, and scripture.

2016 Event details:

Congregational Hymns: Once in royal David’s City (Irby, descant Halley); The first nowell (The First Nowell, descant Willcocks); O come all ye faithful (Adeste Fideles, descant Willcocks)
