St. John’s Church on Sunday, December 15 at 4:00 pm for A Festival of Lessons and Carols. Our expanded choir, led by Director of Music, John Churchwell, will be joined by two trumpeters, adding to the hope and anticipation of the season. Nine lessons will be combined with familiar carols and newer choral expressions of the Advent and Christmas Season: This is the Truth Sent from Above, by Ralph Vaughan Williams; Sussex Carol, by David Willcocks; Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming, arranged by Joel Raney; All is Well, arranged by Lloyd Larson; I Saw Three Ships, arranged by James Kirby; and Here is the Little Door, by Herbert Howells.
