Traditional Lessons and Carols

Please join us for a service of Traditional Lessons and Carols sung by the St Jude’s Singers on Sunday 21st December at 7:30pm.

This service was instituted by the Rt Rev’d E W Benson, Bishop of Truro, England, as a prelude to the Midnight Communion Service on Christmas Eve. In 1918 Dean Milner-White adapted the service for use in King’s College Chapel and in 1928 the BBC first broadcast the service. This service has been popular ever since.
