Easter is celebrated by over 2.3 billion Christians in the world. For 40 days, Christians anticipate the death and resurrection of Jesus in a time of Lent.

Hymn Stories – December 2024December 1, 2024 - 10:00 am
The origins of this carol date to medieval times. The Latin verses were discovered in the mid 1800s by an English minister named John Mason Neale, who translated and wove them together to produce “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.” Neale is also the author of the carol, “Good King Wenceslas,” and the Palm Sunday hymn, “All Glory, Laud, and Honor.” Find out more about this poet, scholar, and director of a home for the elderly.
