About the event
Brick Church’s Lessons & Carols is modeled on the famous service that has been sung at King’s College, Cambridge since 1918. By flickering candlelight, we proclaim the message of Christmas through readings, carols, and anthems, and we share the good news of light overcoming the darkness. This year’s service will feature the world premiere of a new work by New York composer Daniel Ficarri.
This event is free and open to the public.
All are invited to a special reception following the Service of Lessons and Carols.

Sacred Resonance: The Sound of the Spirit
This Sunday Evening series is not a typical concert series. It is designed to expand Brick Church’s presence as a spiritual home for all.
Whether you come from no faith, a different religion, or the Presbyterian tradition, these evenings invite everyone to encounter the sacred, life-empowering presence of God in a unique way. They open us to the movement of the Holy Spirit - how it speaks, acts, and stirs in our lives - while helping us engage in a broader spirituality.
Through music and worship beyond our usual traditions, these gatherings draw us into the holy and divine presence of God.
