Loyola University Maryland celebrated its 34th Annual Festival of Lessons and Carols on Friday, December 9, 2022 at 5:00pm in Alumni Memorial Chapel. You may view the livestream link below at any time to watch the service.
This annual ecumenical service, rooted in the great English choral tradition, combined music and scripture readings of the Advent Christmas Season in a beautiful candle-lit setting. The Loyola University Chapel Choir and guest artists, under the direction of Laura McCormack, Associate Director of Campus Ministry, performed seasonal music from a broad range of musical styles and traditions.
During the service, gifts were presented to representatives from local agencies to be distributed to children in the Baltimore area as part of the "Presence for Christmas" service project co-sponsored by Loyola’s Center for Community, Service, and Justice and Campus Ministry.
