The Robert E. Webber Institute for Worship Studies (IWS) will present a community-wide Festival of Advent Lessons and Carols on Sunday, December 8, 2013, at Grace Episcopal Church in Orange Park. This event, which begins at 6:00 p.m., is a traditional choral worship service composed of a stirring collection of Advent hymns and carols, interspersed between Scripture readings. The service is intended to heighten the expectation of the coming celebration of Christmas. Featured are the IWS Community Choir, local musicians, pastors and community leaders. A reception will follow.
The community Advent service will serve as a benefit to Waste Not Want Not, a non-profit food rescue organization that exists to prevent the discarding of food and other items that can be used to fight hunger and poverty. Several local organizations are providing sponsorship of the event.
The Festival of Advent Lessons and Carols will be directed by IWS President Jim Hart with artistic assistance from Mark Scott, Director of the Florida Vocal Association and Brenda Scott, accompanist/organist. The Festival of Advent Lessons and Carols will be held at Grace Episcopal Church, 245 Kingsley Ave., Orange Park.
