The long-standing Christ Church Bronxville traditional service of Lessons and Carols for Advent will take place this Sunday, December 5th at 5:00pm. This service of Advent Lessons and Carols was created at St. John’s College, Cambridge to usher in the holy season of Advent. During this time we prepare for the birth of that babe lying in a manger in Bethlehem, and we prepare for Christ’s second coming to bring us to fulfillment. As such, this liturgy of prayer, scripture, hymns and carols is focused on the development of the loving purposes of God which lead us to the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ. We have not yet arrived at Christmas, but we eagerly anticipate it. The Christ Church Choir will sing the music of Bach, Posten, Joubert, Halley, Ord and Campion.
