This historic service follows closely the pattern of the famous Christmas Eve celebration from King’s College Cambridge. It is a service that engages our minds and grips our hearts as the drama of redemption is proclaimed to us from Genesis to Revelation. We hear the Scriptures read and briefly explained from nine passages, tracing the history of salvation. It begins with the promise of a Saviour to Adam and Eve, moves to the promises announced to the Patriarchs and through the Prophets, culminates with the birth of the God-man in the Gospels and looks forward to his glorious return which will bring peace on earth. Between each Scripture lesson, we respond by singing sacred hymns, rich in theology, which exalt the person and work of Christ.
