the Festival of Lessons & Carols consists of nine scripture readings (“lessons”)

which recount the fall of humankind, the promise of a messiah,

the Incarnation, and the Christian mandate to spread the Good News.

Each is followed by a carol or hymn which reflects on the lesson’s message.

Experience this Advent Prayer in the candle-lit setting

of one of New Orleans’ most beautiful and historic churches.
