Christmas program

LEWISTON — There will be a program of Christmas Lessons and Carols at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 2, in the Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul.

The Festival of Lessons and Carols is a service of Scripture and song that dates to the late 19th century. Scripture lessons recount the Fall, the promise of a Messiah, the Incarnation and the Great Commission to preach the Good News. Each lesson is followed by a carol or other song that reflects on the lesson’s message and a brief prayer.

Admission is free, although donations may be given to the organ restoration fund.
