Lessons and Carols

The Service of Nine Lessons and Carols was first sung at the Cathedral of Truro, England, and was later adapted for use in King’s College Chapel, Cambridge, where the service has been sung each Christmas since 1918. The service has been sung by the Calvin College Campus Choir since 1974 at LaGrave Avenue Christian Reformed Church in downtown Grand Rapids. Since 2003, the Calvin Women's Chorale has joined the Campus Choir for this service.
