Enjoy the Lessons & Carols Concert
Loyola celebrated its 35th Annual Festival of Lessons and Carols earlier this month. This Loyola tradition combines music and scripture readings of the Advent Christmas Season in a beautiful candle-lit setting. The Loyola University Chapel Choir and guest artists performed seasonal music from a broad range of musical styles and traditions. The livestreamed recording of the concert is available here, along with the program.
During the service, gifts were presented to be distributed to children in the Baltimore area as part of the "Presents for Christmas." If you would like to make a donation to support Baltimore City youth this Christmas, monetary donations are still being accepted here.
Regardless of your faith tradition, the GSO wishes you and yours a restful, peaceful break. We will see you next semester!
