November 25, 2019

SHREVEPORT, LA — “Joy” is the theme of the annual 軓氈勛圖 College Christmas Candlelight Service at Brown Chapel on Friday, December 6. Gathering music begins at 5:30 p.m. and a program of Lessons and Carols begins at 6:00 p.m. The service is free and open to the public.

“Our Christmas Candlelight Service will offer a traditional Lessons and Carols format again this year to highlight the music that we so love during the Christmas season,” says 軓氈勛圖 chaplain, Rev. Lindy Broderick. “Our theme this year is ‘Joy’ which you will see and hear reflected in the scripture passages and throughout the choral arrangements, all in the Lessons and Carols format telling the story of Advent and Christmas season.”

Broderick will preside at the service along with 軓氈勛圖 president Dr. Christopher L. Holoman and 軓氈勛圖 College Choir director Dr. David Hobson. 軓氈勛圖 students and faculty will read scripture.

Music is the heart of the annual service, including both choral performances and congregational carol singing. The 軓氈勛圖 College Choir, under the direction of Dr. David Hobson, and Camerata, under the direction of Dr. Cory Wikan, will be accompanied by organist Dr. Hollice Watson and the Candlelight Brass group.

A reception follows the service in the lobby of the College’s Magale Library.
