Advent Lessons and Carols @ St. Catherine of Siena

TRUMBULL—The Parish of Saint Catherine of Siena (220 Shelton Road, Trumbull) will host a service of Advent Lessons and Carols on Sunday, December 15 at 4:00pm.

Lessons and Carols is a service of Scripture and song that dates to the late 19th century.  In this service, we listen to Scripture lessons which the promise of a Messiah, the Incarnation, and the Great Commission to preach the Good News.  Each lesson is followed by a carol or a choir anthem that reflects on the lesson’s message.

Music for the service will be led by Dr. William Atwood and our Parish Choir, a guest violinist and accompanied by our majestic 4-manual Walker Organ. Carols for the service will be traditional Advent and Christmas hymns such as “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel”, “On Jordan’s Bank” and “Lo! He Comes With Clouds Descending”, and “O Come, All Ye Faithful”.

This will be a beautiful experience you won’t want to miss. All are cordially invited to this special event!

We are joyfully and faithfully Roman Catholic in belief and practice – a community of faith, worship, service, and formation – and with open hearts we invite all our brothers and sisters into a living and saving friendship with the Lord Jesus Christ, in the communion of His One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.  We are conveniently located at 220 Shelton Road in the Nichols area of Trumbull.
