Jesse Lee Church to Hold Three Special Services to Celebrate Christmas Written by Heidi C. Yeranossian
Jesse Lee Church Christmas Services
Jesse Lee Church has three special services to celebrate Christmas this year.
On December 20th at 7PM, Sarah Fox, Jesse Lee’s Director of Music, presents the “Festival of Lessons and Carols.” This festival started in 1918 in war-torn England at King’s College, Cambridge. That original service brought music and scripture together to spark hope, joy, and peace in the battle-weary people of England. Jesse Lee Church honors this tradition in a livestream event featuring the Jesse Lee Singers, Jesse Lee Joyful Noise, ballet dancers, cellists, special guest producer Alexander Devarro, and much more.
