Germantown UMC on Thursday, Dec. 15 will host the Candlelight Carol Service performed by the Hendrix College Choir. This service shares many features with the Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols celebrated each Christmas Eve since 1918 at King’s College in Cambridge, England. The nine lessons, taken from Old and New Testaments, weave a narrative from Adam’s fall into sin, through the prophecies of Christ’s coming, and culminating in Christ’s birth. The tradition at Hendrix goes back nearly six decades, and choir members travel to present tour performances each year.
