Thank you for your amazing work and service thus far, and I am really excited to experience the Christmas season at the Cathedral!  Also, make sure the Choristers get a lot of rest during their Christmas Break.  We start up again on January 4th with the Girls Evensong and won't slow down until June.  

NCS/STA Lessons and Carols

Thursday, December 17, 2015 by Brian Glosh | Full Choir

Hello Parents and Choristers,

 

Tomorrow is the annual NCS/STA Lessons and Carols service. Here is the information that you will need to know!

  • The Chorister’s call time is 4:30 pm in the Choir Room for rehearsal. 
  • The service will begin around 6:30 pm.   
  • Boys and girls should follow a normal weekday evensong schedule with a study hall period after school. 
  • Dinner will be served prior to the Lessons and Carol service. 
  • The choristers will be wearing robes for the service. 
  • This event is very well attended and usually lasts an hour and a half to two hours.  Plan accordingly with parking and trying to find seats!

 

Don’t forget that Saturday is our annual Christmas Party hosted by the Ricks’ family and you should have received a party invitation. 

 

Also, as a reminder, there is no Choristers call this Sunday.  Enjoy the weekend off ladies.

 

The next major event is the Carols by Candlelight service on December 23rd for the Senior Choristers.  Hopefully you have already contacted Sarah Rockwood for your family passes. 

 

Thank you so much for your hard work this half of the year!  I cannot tell you how excited I am to experience Christmas with the Choristers at the National Cathedral!
