82ND ANNUAL CANDLELIGHT SERVICE PLANNED AT ST. LAWRENCE

CANTON – The 82nd Annual Candlelight Service of Lessons and Carols will be 
held in Gunnison Memorial Chapel at St. Lawrence University on Wednesday, 
December 10, at 7 and 9 p.m.
	The Christmas service is one of the University's longest held and most 
cherished traditions. Readings and choral music highlight the event, which 
culminates in the lighting of candles. It will be led by University Chaplain 
Kathleen Buckley and the 
public is welcome to attend.
	Special guest performer this year is flutist Chris Norman, who recently 
performed a concert on campus with the Chris Norman Ensemble. At the service, 
he will accompany the Laurentian Singers on director Barry Torres' arrangement 
of "The Huron Carol," and  play his own variations on "Lo, How a Rose Ere Blooming" 
("Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen") during the candle-lighting portion of the ceremony.
	Families with small children are encouraged to attend the earlier of 
the two identical services, and to sit in the front rows of the balcony.
	For more information, contact the chaplain's office at 315-229-5256.
