The choir of St. Hubert Catholic Church in Langley and Bella Coro Children’s choir will present a Festival of Lessons and Carols for Advent at 4 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 18.

This meditative service of readings, hymns and anthems provides a time of reflection and renewal for all during a very busy time of the year.

Lessons and Carols, as it is informally called, are patterned after the Christmas Eve observance at King’s College in Cambridge, England. It has become an annual holiday tradition for thousands of families in the Puget Sound region.

The program is free to the public; however an item of non-perishable food for the local food bank will be gladly accepted at the door. A reception will follow in the Parish hall.

St. Hubert’s is located at 804 Third St. at the corner of De Bruyn Avenue. For additional information call the church at 221-5383.
