The celebration of Christmas is never complete without a vivid retelling of the biblical story of Christ’s birth through word and music. Join The Emmanuel Choir and invited guests for this annual festival of readings and carols, hearing the familiar story of sheep and shepherds, singing angels, three wise men, and one miraculous Christ Child anew once more. The candlelit 7pm program is preceded by a 6:30pm Christmas organ recital, featuring joyful music for the season performed by Erik Wm. Suter, former organist of Washington National Cathedral.
Tickets are not required for this event. All are welcome. Optional RSVP is available to assure your spot, and to receive email updates about this event.
