Christmas Eve @ St. Paul's




Christmas Eve is a magical time when all that is good and holy is made present in our world. Tonight's worship was centered around the traditional service of Nine Lessons and Carols. This service, originated by Bishop Edward Benson at Truro Cathedral (in Cornwall, UK) in 1880, tells the gospel story using lessons from the Old and New Testaments.

The Anthem Aires provided two selections during the service, "Christmas Lullaby" and "Fall on Your Knees." Lessons were read by Steve & Martha Batch, Josie, Rebecca, & Scott Glancy, Claudia Mills, and Bob Muckle. Pastor Charles shared a reflection following the reading the ninth lesson, John 1:1-14.

Thanks this evening to:
Anthem Aires (Martha & Steve Batch, Bob Muckle, Ron Revier, Diane Wheaton, accompanied by Wendy Wheaton), Belinda Alkula (Video),Tim Cook & Billy Cook (Ushers), and Christopher Wahl (Soundboard).
